    Loved the video! I saw some electric blue crawfish at Petsmart, which got me interested in them. How do you get the crawfish to begin with? Subscriber from Florida, USA.

    Thanks a ton! I got my crayfish from a pet store. Most of the time they are sold as food for other fish or as smaller pets in a tank. Make sure to keep an eye out for "lobsters" since crayfish get a few names. Thanks

    Can you breed the standard Aussie Yabbi to achieve more vibrant colours? By selectively breeding?

    Probably, but it would take a while to plan and get everything to work. I assume to breed a cool colour scheme for some Yabbies, you would need to either interbreed with already colourful relatives of Cherax Destructor that are genetically close enough to breed and produce offspring or find one specific individual Yabbi that already has the desired genetic trait or colour that you want and they breed that crayfish. The hard bit would be getting the actual crayfish. People have done it in the past with different species so it is certainly possible.

    I have two crayfish that I recently moved both from a 30 gallon tank to a 10. They both became inactive, they stay together hidden day and night and I haven’t seen them come out, nor eat anything I’ve given them, anything helps

    Crayfish can very picky and odd when it comes to their tanks. I have never kept 2 crayfish together in any tank because sometimes they annoy each other so maybe try taking one out? I think your crayfish probably dislikes it’s new tank/tank mate so it is acting strange. Also crayfish can be very shy so they could be eating when your not watching. Normally I would only keep one crayfish in a 10 gallon but it depends on the species/size. My crayfish used to have similar habitats.

    ok, so if you don't want your yabbies outside then try putting them in a tank inside instead of a pond outside or other habitats outside. I don't know if the worms are ok for your yabbies but I recently fed my crayfish some worms: kzread.info/dash/bejne/moSEqZaHpZi0nc4.html. If you have any more questions feel free to ask.

    my yabbies will ONLY eat algae eater wafers and is that ok?

  • @crustaceansaustralia

    @crustaceansaustralia

    5 ай бұрын

    It probably isn't the best option in the long run but most algae wafers have most of the essential nutrients that your crayfish needs so I guess it will be alright for now. try experimenting with other foods and leaving them in the tank for a while to see if your crayfish can eat anything else. Good luck!

    Thanks for commenting. I couldn't find the video but here are my tips for finding crayfish genders: males are normally bigger with larger claws than females. There are official ways to tell by looking at the underside of a crayfish but I'm not an expert on this. Another tip is that some crayfish have different colourings for males and females.
