yeah i thought about it and maybe she has molted and ate the shell in her cave thats why i didnt saw anything....however her colour became darker and she is not so energetic like before...

My crayfish was hiding the last 2-3 days in my tank, and i saw her today, and she is missing a claw. In addition, her colour is a bit darker....she is eating regularly...i dont think she has molted, and she looks unhealthy....do you have any advice?? what might have happened??

''Another way to get ich out of a tank is to remove all of the fish. Since we know that the tomites can only survive for 48 hours without attaching to a fish, if we remove all of the fish and then raise the temperature to 80°, the existing ich in the tank should be dead after 2 days. To be...

personally i dont use soap because i think it can do more damage to fish than the possibility that i have bacteria or microorganisms in my hands...i wash my hands only with water before i put my hands in the tank and then dry them well...besides, microorganisms that exists in my room, i think...

yes research is good but sometimes, people are recycling an opinion without knowing stuff....if possible better do something by yourself, is the best way to learn something, especially if your fish life is not threatened by what you do...a lot of fish have their own characters and sometimes...

yes i know, crayfish has destroyed half plants of my tank in les than 2 daysand he keeps destroying...he is going back to his species tank...it was a failed attemp to put him in a planted tank...live to learn :)

it is not eating them it is cleaning the place where it digs its hole! he only cut the plants that grow there....i hope he stops when he creates its place or it will be moved out...

look man i have searched a lot about bichirs since i got my first senegals, senegals dont grow that much and a juvenile albino is more than ok in a 20 gallon...i know that for sure if you say the opposite that means that you dont know about senegal bichirs....the other guy above says that if...

3 days...he is trying to figure things out but this thing is destroying my tank :P a lot of plants where cut today that i woke up....nevermind they are growing up quickly....i hope however he founds his home before he destroys everything...he keeps digging a hole and sitting in there :P

an albino is ok in a 20...i have an albino and is not growing up as much as the other...at first i thought it was a problem but when i checked i saw that most of albinos dont grow up like the common ones....my opinion is yes for sure

thanks for your answers...can you explain me tha way of feeding with these things? and second..i see some youtube videos where the crayfish is all the time in his spot and not hanging around all the time like mine.... will my cray eventually be like that or its on the crays character??

Hi!!! i finally put my crayfish in my main aquarium...no aggresion till now and im very happy about that. i have some questions...if someone could answer it would be very helpful...1) i have made a hidding spot for my crayfish which is really cool! but why isnt he hidding in there??? :P is there...

for now i have the cray in a separate tank, but i think it would be perfect in a community tank, both for its colour and its behavior....i dont want to see his body parts in the bichir's mouth though :P

my bichir is about 5-6 inches and the cray 3,5-4....

ive seen these videos too, but it looks like these are dwarf crayfish and the bichirs are a lot bigger than them....
