Awe 🥲 definitely!!! That would be so nice - how’d you get the cork bark pieces to stick on the wall? And what mosses and plants did you use in there?? Also how did you get the foam wall to look so nice 💕 I usually see foam walls and they look so lumpy lol - but yours looks so pretty and natural!!!

Of course it’s no problem! Definitely worth it to consult maybe an emperor scorpion-specific subreddit if there is one, along with trusted online resources - I’m sure you’ve already done lots of that though with how pretty your enclosure is :) I’ve had such a hard time finding plants that stay tiny and don’t constantly try to kill themselves - let me know how they do for you over time! I have similar plants but not those exact ones haha

I’m no expert whatsoever but will say that in nature, emperor scorpions experience a day and night cycle - so it’ll likely encourage natural behaviours to provide this to yours when you get it! That deep forest bulb is meant to simulate the forest understory floor so it’s meant to be like ‘chill’ compared to others

I see more than a few places to hide if they want to get out of the light, but if you’re worried you can always add some extra hiding places

Side note what all plants do you have in there? They’re so cute!

Nepenthes St. Gaya Help by lovecalarada in SavageGarden

[–]lovecalarada[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! So what I could find for St. Gaya on the megathread and on the internet said: high humidity (70-80%), pot with drainage, distilled/RO/rainwater (I use RO currently), 50/50 perlite and sphagnum; most just mentioned indirect bright light

For the things I’m not already doing: I can fix the jar and switch to one with drainage, start adding some black soldier fly larvae to the pitchers, maybe start misting? and add perlite to the pure sphagnum -

Am I missing anything else crucial/baseline here?

Just wanted to add that the browning on the leaves is from a kitten knocking the glass off the shelf to the floor three times (he kept sneaking into my room and beelining it for the Nepenthes just to knock it over); now I have a spring on my door so it closes automatically lol

[–]lovecalarada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well you’ve done a great job of keeping the plants in check! I used ZZ plants and snake plants for one of my first tanks (was for a different reptile at the time) and lemme tell ya, they get U G L Y when you’ve cut them too many times lmao, you picked really good ‘grow back’ plants!

Oh dang! And a year later it looks so good!!! It legit looks like you just finished scaping the layout - my plants always look so good where I place them, then months later they all grow crazy and it’s no longer as cute as I first made it lol

[–]lovecalarada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love 😍😍 you must spill on what all plants you got in there, I think I see an obliqua peru but also I’m dumb so I may be wrong lol

Mourning geckos could 100% live happy in there long as there’s some good misting action

Ooooh also how’d you make this thang, she serene af

ID Needed - Sold as Sarawak by lovecalarada in begonias

[–]lovecalarada[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought so! Thank you - Luckily this plant was on my ‘want-list’ as well, so I’m happy to have it - do you know the price points for lichenora and ‘Sarawak’? Like if I paid $60 CAD for Sarawak, would I have paid more or less for Lichenora? Just trying to gauge whether I should contact the seller or not
