i tend to find that coco fibre is the best, it goes by many names jungle earth etc it comes in brick form its basically compacted dirt check this link so you can see what i mean http://www.petzoo.co.uk/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=92&products_id=641 oh and If your emperor scorpion stops eating, don’t panic they have been known to stop eating for weeks and weeks lol also keep in mind they only really eat like twice a week. and as they are a slow scorpion sometimes they can have a harder time catching prey items try popping he back legs off of crix n locusts to slow them down abit, if you need anymore help just post back ill be here,

hope iv been helpfull
