yep i heard that too, but you need new shells so the can grow properly :)
that´s interesting... so they do eat anything... I´m curious how long they live. I´ve heard of some crayfish living nearly up to 5 years
i bought them like 9 months ago, i feed them with almost any kind of food.meat, veggies... they have this kind of wet sponge so they can drink water, and a piece of calcium.
How long they are with you...What they eat...?
umm it is a real shell, but it's painted.. :)
I like to know.. Where you find it..?
Hi... is it real shell...?
haha yes, and the other is like a yellow racing car hahah :)
