So I was looking at Sand Dune Scorpions yesterday.  I've been looking to get a desert scorpion for some time.  I also want to a Death Stalker as well.  Both are desert scorpions and I was thinking about getting a ten gallon with a divider in between the middle of the tank.  That way I'd have a five gallon for each scorpion both with the proper setup.

The only thing I've noticed is that I believe the temp differences are about ten degrees though.  See this where I'm wondering if I could keep them both with the divider and still regulate the temps correctly.  From what I've read Sand Dunes need 90-95 and Death Stalkers need 80-85. 

I could possibly place the UTH further to the side of the Sand Dune or even place more sand in the LQ's tank and place the heater on the underside of the tank.  That should in theory keep the temps correctly for each scorpion. 

It's either this or get two five gallons and two separate UTHS.  It's not the cost its just whether I can actually do the set up for both scorpions.
