Tiger cray

[SinisterKisses]

Hello everyone. I have a few questions about Cherax papuanus. I currently have one, who I absolutely adore, and have been thinking about finding a mate for. So my basic question is simply, how do you sex these things? Not only do I need to know whether mine is male or female, but how to spot the opposite sex in a store. Also, how aggressive are they? I know a lot of cray species don't mix well with others in a tank, so if I did manage to acquire one of the opposite sex, how big of a tank would I need to house them both together?

Hello and welcome to the Forum

I know this coloration/Markings as a Cherax Zebra,
The Cherax Tiger has wide white stripes on the Tail.

I would house a pair in a 20 long with 4 places to hide.
I have 6 in a 20 long and it is a little crowded.

Oh, okay, so it's actually a Zebra cray? What do I know, lol. Okay, so that's good to know on the tank size, I don't need a huge tank. Always a plus. But what about telling the two sexes apart?
