Art by Stef* Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 When I lived up North, they were called "bait". Moved down here and they are called "supper." But, it is very cute, and I can see the appeal. Would need a very deep tank as it says they burrow down to 3 feet. Then again, the crawdaddies down here burrow very deep, too. And make chimneys. -Stef* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtletanks91 Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 I would love one haha. If I read that right it sais they burrow 3 feet down during drought season? Would we need to simulate a drought season if they we kept in a tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louie Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 The males get larger than the females which is unusual for crays . You would not have to simulate drought season . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soothing Shrimp Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Not for a long time, if ever. Australia is extremely protective of its species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
