Cambarellusdiminutus

Post by Stalker »

Hello.

I received today 5 young Cambarellus diminutus. They are so cute and funny!

I wonder if its the smallest crayfish in the world. The only one of the same size I found is australian Gramastacus lacus, but it seems bigger on photo so I guess it's at least ex-aequo.

Yeah..hard to tell from pictures. The C. diminutus I had were clearly much smaller than the C. shufeldtii that were in the tank right next to them.
