les Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Great pics Matt will you be starting any landscaped settings for them? Cheers les Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_95 Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Thanks Les. I don't think so they only come out in the dark some in a scaped enclosure they would never be seen. It's a shame actually. I want to do a nice tank for my mantis though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
les Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Hey Matt I was watching a programe on TV and this English chap ( a right wanabe steve erwin ) turnd all the touches out and turned on a UV light and these scorpians he was hunting all shone up as bold as brass it was ammazing and it didnt effect them like normal light would that would make a nice display dont you think? Cheers Les PS just got another spawn down today will send details tommorow as it was with the girl you liked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_95 Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Yes it's amazing, isn't it? All scorpions glow under UV light, I just bought an extremely strong LED black light torch on eBay for pennies! I am going to go catch my own scorpions! It would have to be the easiest way to find them, they are most active between December to February so they are slowly becoming harder to find. Thanks Les, can't wait to hear from you :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_95 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Took new photos, lost over 50 scorpions while I was away..... A bit upsetting, I've just spent some money getting some more, a bit rarer also, lost all my isometroides.... Bit Devo about that, they were a form of angusticaudus which is quite hard to get and they were a rare colour form. Anyways, the photos, sorry they are low quality. U. yaschenkoi Liocheles sp. red (or central west) an arid species, very cool. U. Manicatus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_95 Posted April 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 I got some advice from Greg at the BA meeting last month, my photos have never been better! I turned the flash up and bumped the ISO up to 1600, I don't think this interests anyone much now but if anyone is interested what do you think? Liocheles sp. red Lychas Someone bump me!
