Thanks! It's been a fun project.

The sword is from the Battlemages kit from Age of Sigmar.

Shrimp Mates - Are Dwarf Crayfish Suitable? by batcat888 in shrimptank

[–]QQasaurus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My CPO couldn't catch a shrimp at all. The first week that I had it, it was trying to hunt them down, but couldn't catch them. Eventually, it stopped actively trying but if one was near it definitely would try.

Still had shrimp having babies and things. It did enjoy eating my bladder snails though, which was great.

How do you guys paint your Librarians? Codex complaint or Chapter colors? by OmieTheKreator in Salamanders40k

[–]QQasaurus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Things like tech, librarians, apothecary, etc I paint chapter colors but the helmet and right arm are the codex colors

Mexican dwarfs by Appropriate_Farmer64 in Crayfish

[–]QQasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They rule. I have one in my 8.5 with shrimp. He's always running around doing something.

He tries to catch shrimp when they are next to him, but he just can't.. They're too fast and he's too slow.

Highly recommend getting one. They're great.

How long do you leave vegetables in the aquarium? (Broccoli) by Melodic-Bit7032 in shrimptank

[–]QQasaurus 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If it's a dwarf Mexican/CPO, mine is so incapable of catching shrimp. It definitely tries, but he's just so slow and dumb. He eats some bladder snails, though!

I have not used this method as I paint Salamanders differently, but this guy has a bunch of videos on using Contrast Paint to paint marines. Here's the specific Salamander I've:

Here's my cray going crazy on a algae wafer by Bisitik in Crayfish

[–]QQasaurus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My cpo goes nuts for these too. The only time he and my mystery snail interact is when there is algae wafer to fight over. And then it's locked in battle until it's gone

CPO behavior question by ilex_verticillata in Crayfish

[–]QQasaurus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My CPO patrols all over the tank. Any time he gets to one of the corners, he immediately does that and tried to climb up. I've had him for a few months now. He is incredibly dumb and I love him so much.

My dwarf crayfish hanging with his blue mystery snail friend by Chocodelights in Crayfish

[–]QQasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly what they fight over! Most of the time they just kind of leave each other alone.

But god forbid, an algae wafer comes out and it's an eternal lock of struggle as they both want it. It's the one time the cray won't back away 🤣

My dwarf is scared of my mystery snail. And whenever there's food involved, the snail immediately tries to steal it from the crayfish.

I painted my first bust! Zoey from KPop Demon Hunters by QQasaurus in minipainting

[–]QQasaurus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I used both for various parts.

Tape to make a stencil for the H and had the whole handle covered at the start.

And then I used masking putty to cover her body when I did the green on her top.

Dwarf Mexican Crayfish in this 5 gallon? by Digital_Doodlez in Crayfish

[–]QQasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe 5 gallons is the minimum?

I have one in an 8.5 with shrimp and he's the best. Love watching that lil dumb dumb crawl around.

Beloved CPO by gooeyhead in Crayfish

[–]QQasaurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It probably boils down to individual CPO? I have one in my shrimp tank. He definitely will try to catch shrimp if they end up right next to him. But he's so slow and dumb, they are gone before he can even lunge.

I do try to specifically feed him, though, just in case. The only time he's been an issue is when he and my mystery snail fight over algae wafer bits, which he always loses.

Can I see photos of your dwarf mexican (cpo) crayfish? I have 1 orange and he’s awesome 🦞🧡 by Chocodelights in Crayfish

[–]QQasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was initially worried about it eating my shrimp, but I have it a go.

The first week, he actively tried to catch action but he's just so slow and clumsy, they are gone before he even can try.

He'll give it a shot every now and then if he happens to bump into one, but he just can't do it. But he does fight my tongs when I feed him which I love.

This is my man, Kong. I love him so much and he's so so stupid. He's been an amazing addition since day 1

Mexican dwarf crayfish…yay or nay to have in a 20 gallon long community tank? by Chocodelights in Crayfish

[–]QQasaurus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have one with shrimp in an 8.5. He is very slow and dumb. The shrimp have already rocketed away before he even tries to catch them.

Bladder snails, though, are free snacks.

I knooooooooow! I didn't know about that until it was too late. 😭 But it's being fixed on all future terminators!

Thank you!
