pucksr Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 So, I was recently collecting some crayfish during a fishing trip and came across an orange morph of this dwarf crayfish. The mena crayfish has a unique "leopard pattern" on the back. Which looks great in the orange color. It isn't the smallest dwarf, but it isn't huge. https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/ouachita/home/?cid=fsm9_039755 I will try to get a better picture, but it is currently hanging out in my neocaridina tank. Hiding under a log and any attempt to get it out causes a lot of debris to kick up. I tried to collect some others for future breeding purposes, but many "escaped" and died on the floor. I still have 2-3 non-orange remaining. Any recommendations on how to breed this trait into future offspring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pucksr Posted October 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 After some review, I think I identified this incorrectly It is Faxonius leptogonopodus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
