Macrobrachium Lanchesteri

Post by Invader_Xan »

Can anyone tell me more about Macrobrachium Lanchesteri? Specifically, about keeping them in an aquarium?

There are a number of references to the species around this site (and believe me when I say, I have searched), as well as a few pictures and at least one link to a rather interesting article on the wild populations of the "Malaysian Rice Prawn".

Is there anything else to know? Can I treat them essentially the same as glass shrimp?

I had a small group for a short while.
They seem pretty aggressive and need a lot of hiding places.
They ate anything i put in the tank. Flakefood, frozen bloodworms, shrimp sticks and so on.
