I agree if they are going to sell a certain species they should at least have some basic husbandry details right in the display tank.

sorry to hijack this thread a lil bit, but just to clarify scorps dont use the cotton wool and should have a water bowl ??? is that what you saying ?? only reason i ask is i wanan get some eventually and id like to keep them correctly...
