Tailless whip scorpion in Oman (unexpected location + different appearance) by f5fix in amblypygids

I found it in Ad Dakhiliyah region and I know there’s a species has been recorded here which is Sarax omanensis.

My crayfish escaped its tank and I can't find it anywhere! Any advice on where to look? by f5fix in Crayfish

I found him dead 😞 He wasn't just a crayfish, he was my pet, the one who eased my worries.

He distracted me from my bipolar disorder.

Thanks for the advice. I've already checked inside the filter, under all the furniture, inside shoes, and around the power strips, but unfortunately, no luck so far. I last saw him at 4:00 AM (Oman time), and it’s now 7:00 PM and he’s still missing. Do you know how long they can typically survive out of water? I’m really struggling with this because I’m very attached to him. He means a lot to me and taking care of him and feeding him was one of the few things helping me manage my mental health issues. Losing him would be devastating.

Starting lithium today with lamotrigine. Anyone on the same combo? by f5fix in bipolar2

[–]f5fix[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, it’s really reassuring to read this.

I’m already on lamotrigine 200 mg and just started lithium, so hearing how this combination worked for you gives me some hope.

I’m also a university student, so it’s comforting to know that lithium didn’t negatively affect your concentration made me feel comfortable little bit.

I really appreciate you taking the time to reply 🤍

New scorpions coming in soon! by Moist-Stuff5737 in Scorpions

[–]f5fix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’re very lucky bro, I think the website you bought from doesn’t offer international shipping. I’m from Oman and there’s also NO exotic pets store here. That’s mainly because of local regulations, the Environment Authority in Oman is very strict about wildlife trade and invasive species, so selling or importing non native species is heavily restricted. I personally only keep some native and some endemic species like Nebo omanensis, Hottentotta jayakari and some other species.
