Dwarf Clayfish

i had separate this crayfish. For sure it is not a CPO. Look at the size, easily 8-9cm.

Where did you brought yours? And how much?

[exotic_idiot]

I actually got 2 cpo from C328 for $10 but now left 1.
I will also observe mine, see how big will it grow too

[Dscheng]

orange vs blue !

Very beautiful blue crayfish...
Is your background black too?
I just bought 2 on last thursday, keep hiding inside my plants

Thanks Bro, I have no background paper in my tank btw. The background in the pic is actually part of DW hardscape.

Yes, if I recall, mine also tend to hide when just introduced into the tank. They started showing more of themselves a few weeks later

orange vs blue !

Wah bro, that's a really nice blue but not mini type right? Non destructive crayfish as well?

Erm, definitely not CPO. I think destructive type lolz. This morning, i found the blue in my common toilet, what the heck !! And it still surviving, but show sign of weakness. Not sure how it can survive without water for few hours !

I'm not sure whether C328 and seaview their source is it the same?
Too much price difference.

You kept them in your toilet? How they manage to climb out of your tank???
Bro check your air tube or pipings see any links if they can use it to climb out a not?

Just wondering, are the packets of crayfish available at C328 or Seaview specifically labelled as "CPO"? or are they just blank bags with only prices written on them?

It show mexican. Lol. Btw I kept my tank in the living room, somehow rather the blue one escape through the sponge filter and crawl all the way to toilet. When I wake up I saw..tio chua haha.

UA,

Luckily my Gex slim 450 has a top cover, i am worried about the lighting. Although my plant is java moss, not really a demand plant. but will the top cover affect the growth of the java moss?

Seaview packed them 2 by 2. Once i went, they packed them in 4s and 5s. Surprising those packed together seemed harmless and wont fight

This one confirmed trained personally by Mas Selamat bro! But not to worry, it's still ok as long as it's not dried out. I guess the humidity in your toilet kept it alive. The wild crayfish I caught illegally before at Yishun Dam also escaped and next morning when I found him in my balcony in between 2 potted plants was still alive but very weak. It went on to live and kill the other 2 crayfish in the tank over the next month!

Seaview's labelled as 'Dwarf Mexican' if memory serves me. The ones at C328 no label at all and are much smaller and some with greyish blue coloration than the ones from Seaview.

UA,

No need to cover bro. My Fluval Spec V also had cover but I removed as it's like diffusing the light somewhat and I needed my fan to blow more surface area. I think your 'Mas Selamat' climbed up your intake filter pipe on the left and used that nearby black wire somehow to hoist itself out. If you cover and still have those things on the left, if your cover is light enough, I believe the same crayfish can still escape. They seem to have good memory, why don't you put that same blue crayfish back and observe how he's trying to escape. He'll probably retrace the same route

[exotic_idiot]

At C328 they are label just 5 and individual pack.

Anyone has female from seaview? It is hard to check cos they are too young n plastic abit tough to see

[mdm]

think the large one is the orange crayfish?

when young and small, they really look like CPO... can be mistaken easily

last time i also bought wrongly before

When giant dwarf meet the real dwarf lolz.

[mdm]

once i also caught my CPOs mating...

got a curious fish peeping them some more Lol

yesterday my CPO died. Nothing was abnormal. It has molted 3 -4times over the months. The only variable was that i introduce more livestocks to the tank. It was a community tank with guppies adults and frys, nerite snail, dory and 2 neo fire reds
