Under optimal conditions, the average lifespan for the Emperor Scorpions is 10 years or so in captivity. To care for emperor scorpions, start by setting them up in a 15-20 gallon terrarium or fish tank with a lid that latches shut to keep the scorpions from getting out. With the proper living conditions and care, an emperor scorpion can live anywhere from two to six years. The only item that needs to be cleaned regularly is the water dish to prevent it from becoming moldy or fouled by an insect that drowns. So, do not try to take it out. //
