ImDisclose Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 I got this crayfish labeled as blue cray at my lfs. Since then, he has turned a reddish color and I'm not sure ten gallons is enough for him. Any ideas?

chappy6107 Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Im not very good at id'ing many crays, but I once had marmorkreb crays and depending on the ph of the water they would either be blue or a rusty color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is, it will clone itself, and they are all she's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pucksr Posted June 20, 2017 Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 Crayfish, in my experience, are much more variable in their color than some of the shrimp we keep. What is the pH of your water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
