Scorpion and Fence lizard together

[Hybridb7]

Can two southwestern fence lizards live harmonically with a striped bark scorpion? I would like to know to know if i need another tank or not

[nguyen_inc]

(he has a board between them.........) and no I did not tell him to do this hahah

[gonesnakee]

I'd recomend another tank ASAP Mark

It's not like tanks are expensive.

[Hybridb7]

well, i made sure they don't get in together, and money isn't the prob, It's just being able to get out and get it. I got lazy ppl around the house and i have no car yet. so i had to improvize :-P

just put either the scorpion or the lizards, either or in a blender and hit ice crush mode. problem solved

please dont ever say that again man.

I think he was just making a point... putting them together is silly, and either the lizards or the scorpion would just end up dead.

Hybridb7, this is 2 threads where you ask if this can live with that, or if this can live with that. Let me give you the soundest advice you'll ever hear about keeping exotic pets: If you can't afford another environment, you can't afford to have that pet. Do your water dragons and your frog live together? Their requirements may be similar, but that doesn't mean they should be housed together. They can transfer diseases back and forth, stress one another out, compete for food, etc. It's NOT a good idea. But housing a scorpion with a lizard is just crazy.

lol, thanx for clearing that up invictus

[Hybridb7]

i alrdy said that money is not a problem. only problem is getting out to like that fish place and getting a tank. I knew for the most part that they won't be able to live together, but somehow they got in together and nothing bad happened
that's y i ask that is all

Why did you get the second animal to begin with then??

[Bartman]

if your to lazy to get a tank and benefit your animal, wow, imo you shouldnt have one.

And to add to invictus solid info, dont house anything together...even if its the same species imo. Just for breeding. Reptiles dont get lonely and a mate only stresses them out..again unless your breeding them.

[jwsporty]

Housing together...Bad Idea!!

Good Idea...;) let the scorpion loose, so that you can spur the lazy couch potatoes to get off their A$$es and get to the store for anoither tank...Jeez

Buy a second hand tank off of a classifed paper in your town and have them deliver it to your home.

oh i know he was just joking. it just puts a bad image into my head. :)

[nguyen_inc]

I don’t see why you guys are making a big deal.....well maybe I do, but its not like they can touch each other... theres a divider between the scrop and the fences.....he is just doing this untill he can get a tank for the lil bugger..well yea, we are going tank shopping going tomorrow. jwsporty, lol hmmm good idea....

[concept3]

its a big deal because the animal suffers. have a tank set up for the animal you are buying before you buy the animal? it just seems so common sense like to me, but i geuss common sense isnt always common...........

[nguyen_inc]

Well im not sure if the animals are suffering because they cant evan see each other.... well i guess they can smell huh.... I do get tanks ready and read stuff before I get any new animals just like a lot of you guys. hybrid does too, maybe not in this case but with his other animals he did. Hes a newbie and is trying his best to make all his animals happy. PLease Please dont think im getting mad because I would feel like you guys if I didnt know hybrid7 face to face....
