[QUOTE="Dave Jay, post: 133292, member: 27677"] Sorry, I've been a bit busy of late. I usually just spray a patch of the side of their housing , but I think a shallow dish would be OK. I know it's not popular on these forums, but I usually add clean aquarium gravel or stones to scorpion water dishes as they seem to like standing on the wet rocks more than actually drinking from the bowl. After careful observation I started adding a half buried polished stone to some enclosures, they always have droplets of condensation on them even when the surface of the substrate is dry and I found that the scorpions will often drink from them or sit on them almost daily. The arid species in particular look for the condensation but in enclosures where the moisture levels are higher I find that dripping water onto a stone is a good way to provide surface water.
