Anyone got some recommendations?

2 Upvotes

I own a curly hair tarantula and a asain forest scorpion and i love them so far, i set up another enclosure and i really wanted to get african millipedes but they are out of budget. Idk how many gallons my enclosure is but it is 13 in tall, 16 in width and 24 in length. I have a drainage layer at the bottom with around 5 inches of coconut fiber on top. If anyone has some ideas of what pets could live comfortably in here i would appreciate it! Thanks

Where can I find Simandoa conserfariam without paying $45 for shipping?

2 Upvotes

Looking for Simandoa conserfariam breeders in the northeastern US but everyone I can find is either on the west coast or has a bad reputation (wormman)

Currently looking at The Roach Ranch but they are out of stock and idk when they will go back in stock!

Any other people or places I can look?

Anyone successfully co-habbing their Blue Death Feigning Beetles ?

I've had my BDFB for a while now. I have 5 and they are doing great in their fairly large 18 * 18 inch (45cm) enclosure.

They do use the space but there probably is room for another critter in there. However, I dont want to cause the little fellas any distress or issues.

I have people say dessert hairy scorpions can cohab but id like to hear people's real world experience of that. I have heard velvet ants can too but they are basically impossible to get here in the UK.

What substrate or substrate mix is best for Asian Forest Scorpion?

I currently use half peat moss and half organic topsoil but it doesn’t hold humidity very well
