This is my Zebra crayfish.. goes by the name Zoidberg his job, master architect and tunneler ;)
he grows to about 6-8 inchs
he likes warmish water 68-77f
ph can be 6.5-7.5 just not to acidic or he will melt.
i dont see him much but hes really cool when i do.
they can live in 10gal tanks but i gave him a 33 with a big cave.
they will eat fish and plants, but only if theres nothing else they are scavengers and will eat ANYTHING. i keep Zoid with a rainbow shark that was to mean for my cummunal, he killed my female gourami, but hes tough enough to live with a cray and not get eaten in his sleep, they eat during the night so i feed him before i turn out the lights, i dont feed the fish but he finds his own food. there is also gaint ramshorns in there and i think the cray eats the clutches cuz they disapper just as fast as they are made, but some still make it, but he will also eat the snails.
they should be kept alone or in a big tank with hiding for both the more hiding the less chance of fighting, they can breed when there 2inchs.
heres a video, i apologize for the jerkyness, my camera is my phone and it hates videos:laugh:
