Spongecake

I don't know why, but I've always wanted to have a scorpion. I wanted one even more when I decided on the name my future scorpion would have. So after some searching I finally found one! 

This lovely chap's name is Spongecake. Why? Because scorpions are the exact opposite of spongecake. ;) 

Scorpions are nocturnal. So if you really want to see them moving around you have to watch them at night. Spongecake is a black emperor scorpion so he's hard to see in his terrarium. But the handheld blacklight we bought helps us see him perfectly at anytime. It really is fun to see them all lit up!
