Jen Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Does anyone have experience caring for prawn. I got a couple from my not so local pet store. The guy said they are hardy and easy to care for but once I acclimated them to my tank I wanted to do a bit more research on them. So far everything I found online on prawn is related to cooking them and not so much on keeping them alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. F Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 It looks like some sort of Macrobranchium sp., but pigmented much differently than any I've seen before. It's so pretty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShrimpP Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 I have no idea on an ID, but those are some great looking prawns. I would assume care would be pretty general to most other prawns. Just hope these guys stay a manageable size (claws/arms aren't too large/long, at least yet) and aren't too aggressive. Tight fitting lid is a good idea.

Soothing Shrimp Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 I always had a soft spot for prawn. So big and beautiful. Do you know what type it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
