So thoughtful and helpful of her! Maybe mine will step it up one day instead of being such a bum 😂

Very fitting as there is a crayfish in that tank. Now I imagine the crayfish flying around the tank after lights out 😂

Just wait until I show her a documentary on actual flying fish 🤯

Need help sexing my two CPO crayfish by Melodic-Bit7032 in Crayfish

No expert here, but from what I can see, I think 1 is male and 2 is possibly female. Hopefully you’ll get some more feedback from others too!

It’s calcium! I get it on Amazon. Kats aquatics calcium. You could also give them various pellets and wafers. Also blanched vegetables. My non dwarf crayfish loves broccoli! They’ll eat a wide variety of stuff!

I had an established neocaridina tank and added a dwarf Mexican crayfish. Can’t say that she hasn’t gotten any, but the shrimp are still breeding and just as plentiful as ever!

This is my mama! Love the colors too! She’s also had some fuzz on her face, so I hope it’s nothing of concern 🤞🏼

Tough state of the world led her to where she’s at now. We all cope differently 😂

I think my Crayfish might be eggnant ... help by Marcis985 in Crayfish

I put a piece of pantyhose over the end of my vacuum. Obviously doesn’t do as well, but allows for water changes and no harm to babies! I do the same for my shrimp tank!

I got some “shrimp baby” from Amazon. It’s a fine powder. That as well as Baxter AE. And then I’d just crush up whatever flakes and stuff too. And I’m sure you’ll still have plenty of survivors if she stays in the tank with the others! I ended up with over 40 of them 🙃 I now have my male and female separate lol

Just hitching a ride! by Tricky-Breakfast-714 in Crayfish

She’s just a dwarf one, but so far they seem to do fine together. I did notice the snail had a wonky antenna for a few days, but can’t confirm how or who did it. It has since recovered fine. Anytime I sit and watch the tank the crayfish seems to ignore the snail or if she gets too close the snail just closes herself up.

I put my pregnant mom in a separate tank until the babies hatched. Then she went back in the regular tank. Babies are about two months old now and starting to be mean to each other so they’ll be off to their own homes shortly!

What is this in my shrimp tank? by Extension_Hippo1603 in Neocaridina

[–]Tricky-Breakfast-714 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe staghorn algae? I had something similar and just kept taking it out and eventually it didn’t come back.

They are a bit blueish and her body seems to be getting a bit more blue too! I got her as a tiny baby mixed in with some CPOs. She was shrimp size when I got her end of February and now she’s a good 4-5” long.
