I tried to find the lifespan of Dwarf Crayfish by doing searches and looked in the Shrimp Varieties and Petshrimp Store pages. Could you please let me know as I am interested in raising some of these and wanted to find out as much as I could about them.
Thanks.

I recently read a paper which estimated "that males of both species (C. shufeldtii and c. puer),unless removed from the population by predators, live for 15-18 months".
This is 1960's era research, and the paper did not specifically measure the lifespan of any specific individuals. This lifespan was estimated by observations of populations of wild specimens.
