Dwarf Blue Crayfish

Dwarf Blue Crayfish, also known as Cambarellus diminutus, are freshwater crustaceans that make great pets for aquarium enthusiasts. These crayfish require a tank of at least 10 gallons with a substrate of sand or small gravel and plenty of hiding places such as rocks, caves, and plants. It's important to avoid overfeeding as excess food can pollute the water. These crayfish can be kept with peaceful fish species but may become territorial and aggressive towards other crayfish or bottom-dwelling fish. Providing plenty of hiding places and securing any decorations can help keep them active and curious without causing too much disturbance.
