Prawn

Recommended Posts

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.

It looks like some sort of Macrobranchium sp., but pigmented much differently than any I've seen before. It's so pretty!

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.
