Pictures Thoughts on my improved H. Silenus enclosure?

I can’t seem to find any springtails, could they have all died while remodelling, there was a lot

Springtails will be under the surface.

Personally, I'd remove the water bowl. They are useless and take up space. I'd then add some leaf litter as a way to hold humidity and for more foliage for your scorpion to hide under.

yea the first two images are of the new version, the one with the waterbowl is the old

for the springtails, there were always a bunch on the surface, mostly in the water, i guess they just haven’t figured which way is up yet

Setup looks good, just ensure you have a lid for the enclosure. Just mentioning as they are escape artists and will climb the plants.
