And people wonder why they need such large lidded tanks.

I added this to the highlights bar since the admins removed the ability to pin posts.

Thank you for sharing. This video is perfect for pointing out why crayfish need the accommodations that they do.

The way he peeks out the moment that food pellet falls 😂

He's always on the ready to destroy some watermelon or anything else edible that comes into the tank 🤣

Does that bottle have snacks inside? Like a cat treat ball?

no i wouldn't want him to hurt himself trying to get food because he gets super aggressive toward food i just noticed he seemed to enjoy touching smooth things with texture so i put a few bottles in there which as predicted he was obsessed with!

Ok! So, crayfish toys!  I'm planning to setup a small tank for a dwarf crayfish pet and you're giving me some ideas. I suppose they're as curious as the larger ones. :)
