scorpion pics
Man my thread titles just ooze of creativity huh.
Alexial's an Egyptian deathstalker ( Leiurus quinquetriatus) and like all scorpions, she glows under a blacklight. UV rays are very stressful to scorpions though, and long term exposure can stress them to the point of death, so never keep a scorpion near sunlight or under a blacklight for an extended period of time.
Duplex is a black-top desert hairy ( Hadrurus arizonensis). She's grey and yellow in normal lighting and not nearly as dangerous as Alexial.
These are my newest additions. They're most likely either Opistophthalmus boehmi or Opistophthalmus wahlbergii, I haven't quite figured it out yet. This one is Noelle.

Noelle again, but with flash and in her enclosure.
Her smaller counterpart, Willie, whom she'd not hesitate to beat up if given the chance.

Alexial is, but Willie's not. His sting would be relatively harmless. It would still hurt a lot though

Only you would compare a puppy to a snail and have them nearly tie in cuteness
