I got another emperor scorpion. Is it alright for a male and a female to be housed together on a daily basis

shouldnt be a problem. If she does become gravid, I highly recomend seperating them, though

As long as there is room, you shouldnt have a problem, especially with Emperors. At the pet stores Ive seen 6 in a 10gal...I wouldnt put that many, I would limit it at 3 with at least 4 places to hide. Just watch them very closely at first to make sure they get along. If you add another, I would recomend getting it, doing a quarantine for at least a week, then put it in with the others in the morning on a day you will be home all day and can monitor the situation

They should be fine I just bought 2 Red Claw Scorpions last tuesday and I have them housed together. I bought a male and a female and same thing the male is about an inch bigger but so far they get along good and I haven’t had any issues.

Also, if you are housing multiple emps in the same tank, when you feed them, provide more crickets than there are scorpions. Sometimes 2 emps will fight over the same cricket, even if there are 2 crickets present. Other than that, just like others said, as long as there is enough hiding spaces, ideally there should be as many hiding spots as there are emps.

You can always set up 2 hides in the hot areawhere u have an UTH and 2 in the cooler area. Once summer hits, they will need soemthign cooler cuz the hotspots will get too hot for them to be in all the time.
