Announcement Rule 1 amendment
Hey all!
just making this post to notify the community that we have made an amendment to rule 1. Its a bit of a silly one as I didnt think we would need to say "Dont poach crayfish, thats bad and a crime" but unfortunately, we did see someone talk about this recently :(
So rule 1 has been altered to include poaching too. If you have removed a protected cray from its enviroment or taken a crayfish from a protected area we will take action against your posting about this. Protected species and areas exist for a reason. Please leave these animals alone. They may be gorgeous and eye catching but its for everyone's best interest that we leave them alone.
Have a great day!

Marbled crayfish has a hole in its back?
My crayfish has this hole on its back, it was wayyy smaller before she molted now it’s way bigger and looks like her insides are pushing out???

Help!?
I found this in my crafting today. I’m not too sure what it is. It’s definitely not part of a snail either. It almost looks like a part of a fish, but I don’t have any fish in the tank. I only have two snails and the crays which just molted, this looks like it’s not from them tho any ideas??? Also both of my snails are fine they have not bothered them at all in the 6 months i’ve had the crays and i know there’s a possibility of them getting eaten .

Added around 20ish green rili neos to Vanillas tank and these little ones are truly fearless, they'll climb all over him even on his face and antennae and Vanilla just puts up with it or gets scared by the shrimp 🤣 I gave everyone some pellets and caught this fearless guy eating a pellet unbothered by the beast looming over him

Eggs, what now?
Very excited for the little babies and want to know if I should do anything special for them. Tank is densely planted in the back with driftwood pieces, moss, leaf litter and 3D printed hides. Will they be fine in there or would it be a good idea to raise them in a separate tank? I do have a 5G tank with some shrimp and snails I could move her or the babies to.

Brilliant...
Very few crayfish can exceed THIS level of environmental awareness... Dropped some algae wafers. Landed on her head. Not moving an inch. Looks like a comically undersized French Baret.

Pet Breeding dwarf crayfish
In a quest to make some money off my hobby I’m looking into breeding projects. Could breeding dwarf crayfish and giving to my LFS for store credit be profitable? I can’t find much on their breeding or if I can keep them in a colony.

Photo New Dwarf Crayfish.
Ended up getting a dwarf Crayfish. Seems super chill sharing wafers with the ramshorns. Got a few hideouts and climbing enrichment.

Can I help her? Maybe pull?
She already lost one claw in a difficult molt and this remaining one is driving her crazy, she's using her little claws to literally slice it off 27 Hours style 💔💔💔 It's been a day and a half and I hate seeing her struggle, anything I can do to help please let me know 🙏

Meet Cray The Fish. he’s a wild caught Faxonis imbellis, commonly known as a Calico Crayfish. he lives in a naturalistic 20 gallon tank where he regularly shreds plants, digs holes, and acts like a little gremlin.

Fishing "Unhand me you filthy landlubber!"
Went to check my fish traps and this guy was inside of one. Bro wasn't very amused of getting handled. 😅
Signal crayfish, sadly very invansive around here.

The crawfish I wanted doesn't fit in my aquarium (Help needed PLEASE)
I wanted to bring my familys old aquarium back to life and as I started researching different sea-animals I came across the Blue Florida Crayfish and it's safe to say that I became a huge fan quickly.
Unfortunately my poor spatial perception has failed me once again and as I measured my tank today (lenght 60cm, width 30cm and depth 30 cm, 54l in total) I realized that I could not accommodate a Blue Florida Crayfish. I am absolutely DEVASTATED! Could someone with more knowledge help a beginner crawfish enthusiast and redirect me to another species? Or are all crayfish too big for a 54l tank? Thanks so much.

Science Why white?
A couple months ago, one of my 2 crayfish died and as i was removing them from the tank i noticed a tiny white crayfish that wasn’t there when i put the other two adults in that tank. I know for a fact it didn’t come with them because it had been a while and they were in a different tank before, so i guess they must have had children and i didn’t notice. I originally thought that they would turn orange as they grew but as you can see that hasn’t happened.
Picture 1 - took today of grown child
Picture 2 - the original crayfish that spawned the new one
Picture 3 - what the child looked like when i found them
Im not very experienced in genetics or anything but both parents looked the same so why is this one like that. Not complaining they look cool but i wonder why
