Description

Orange CPO Dwarf Mexican Crayfish/Mini Lobster (Cambarellus patzcuarensis) Auction is for One unsexed juvenile crayfish. Dwarf crayfish are undemanding when it comes to housing, and a handful of them can be housed comfortably in a 10 gallon (45 litre) aquarium. However, if you want to keep more than two or three of them in an aquarium, then you should consider a 20 gallon (91 litre) long aquarium to be the minimum size. Any aquarium containing dwarf crayfish should include numerous hiding places. Crayfish molt regularly and they require a place to hide until their shell hardens again. Until their shell hardens, they are completely defenseless against other crayfish and fish in their tank � so include hiding places if you don�t want them to get eaten. You can tell that a crayfish has molted by the fact that the substrate of the tank will be strewn with what looks like crayfish body parts. Don�t panic if you see this, since it�s just likely molted out of its old shell. When choosing a filter for a dwarf crayfish tank, it�s important to choose a high quality filter. They tend to be more sensitive to water conditions than other crayfish, and they do not handle ammonia or nitrites well. Usually hang on back (HOB) filters make the best choice for dwarf crayfish tanks, though sponge filters can also make a good choice. If you do decide to use an HOB filter, you should cover the filter intake with material to ensure that no crayfish hatchlings are sucked up into it. Something unique to dwarf crayfish is that they can usually be kept without incident in community fish tanks. They are a relatively non-aggressive species of crayfish, though it should be said that there are exceptions to every rule (they may also prey on small fish like neon tetras). Because of their small size, they should never be kept with large fish, or other large crayfish. If they are kept with either large fish or crayfish, they will quickly become prey. Mexican dwarf crayfish are omnivores, and they will eat just about anything that they can get their claws on. In the home aquarium, they should be fed a regular diet of a high quality sinking pellet, along with regular feedings of live or frozen foods and vegetables. When choosing their live food, make sure that you only select bottom dwelling live food. This can include blackworms, brine shrimp, gammarus, earthworms and snails. Live foods that are top or mid dwelling like mosquito larvae and daphnia will go uneaten. Dwarf crayfish will also appreciate the regular addition of vegetable matter to their diet, and their favorite vegetables are shelled peas and zucchini and cucumber medallions. All vegetables should be thoroughly cleaned and blanched prior to adding them to an aquarium. They will even accept dried aquarium plant cuttings and leaves, though that can quickly foul your aquarium if you�re not careful. I accept paypal, please wait for an invoice after auction closes. Shipping will be $8 for priority mail. Live arrival is guaranteed. In the event of DOA please send a picture of the crayfish in original shipping bag within 2 hours of delivery. I will refund cost of dead crayfish or replace(buyer pays shipping charge for replacement). More available, contact me if interested in other quantities.
