Hallo All

I would like to write at englisch, because im just 15 years old, and comes from Denmark (my deutsch isnt so gut)

I would like to have these funny crayfish, but how many can I have in my 12 liter tank? In the tank there is at good and big filter, an HMF-filter, with an airpump, so it will be filtered very good.

How many of these crayfish can I have in my 12 liters tank? (pairs?)

I hope you can understand my bad english..

Im thanking you in anticipation..

Best regards
Jacob Lihn

Hello jacob,
I think that a 12l tank is too small for one pair....perhaps it is possible to keep them in such a small tank, but I would buy a bigger one. Some of them are realy aggressive and kill others after they sloughed off their skin.
Best regurds,
Lina

Hi Jacob,
this is my opinion too. For CPO's seems Your tank to small.

What are you thinking about shrimps? There are a lot of different kinds off shrimp. In such a small tank you could grow at least 10 individuals of them (only for the beginning). You have the choice of colour too. And they are very peaceful.
I think this would be the better option in Your special case.
Shrimps are also very interesting!

By the way, welcome here

Thank you for your opinions

I know one who have blue tigershrimps, maybe I should have some of them instead of CPO

Why don't you try Cambarellus shufeldtii? They stay smaller and can live well in a tank of your's size

They arent so special, and isnt so good looking

Hi again,

if You can get the blue tigershrimps for a low price, I think this would be the more impressive alternative. I would prefer this option, but its up to You to make this decision
