Orange Dwarf Crayfish

[fishoman]

got one pair about one year ago. This is the mini size crayfish and longest it can grow is 5cm. So make it not hard for nano tank to breed.

Nice one there. So you manage to breed it?

[anaconda]

Cool crayfish!!

What do you feel it? What water parameters do you need to keep it?

Where did you buy it?

[fishoman]

i bought from breeder in Germany. Now I have young offspring, will let go in March when size reach 1.5cm. Just normal water parameter will do, no special requirement needed. Interested party can pm me to reserve. Will only let go 2 pairs.

I've seen it before, but not here in Singapore. The size makes it great for our aquariums.

By the way, did you keep them on their own or do you have other fishes with them?

Cheers,

I just keep them on their own in one 1.5 feet tank.

Any idea what's its scientific name and its origin?

[Quixotic]

Cambarellus patzcuarensis from Lago de Patzcuaro, a volcanic crater lake in Michoacán, Mexico?

Does it destroy plants? Will be cool to have 1 pair crawling around in my planted tank

[fishoman]

Not really, I have some crypts and mosses inside the tank too

can it be kept with existing crayfishes/

[fishoman]

Hi,
I keep them together with Red Cherry Shrimps.
Sometimes they catch one, but most of the times they are to slow.
I haven´t seen yet a successful catch with my own eyes, but I was able to photograph one of the crayfishes eating a shrimp. And it looked very fresh, according to its color - so I expect the crayfish was faster this time.
