Doesn't this thread belong in the hybrid forums? LOL just kidding. They always say that in the cichlid forums.

Nice one. Put some more pics up if you can and keep us up on the progress.

What colour is Pappy???

This is pappy (in the middle) with two other female P. cubensis:

They're mostly a red/brown color (top of the carapace, claws) that fades out into other reds, browns and greys (the tail, lower carapace, legs). Not a particularly bright or flashy species, but the color fade is neat. I need to take some pictures of the male as of late, he has some huge claws again. Next time I go to the boyfriend's house, I'll snap a few (they were gifts for him, Cuban crayfish for the Cuban boyfriend lol)

My Procambarus alenii mated with some brownish thing too and all the babys turned out that way. donated most of them to LFS. (really rewarding seeing your creation in a pet store tank being sold for 7 bucks when you donated them all)

I have this cool one that has redish claws with blue tips, and blue tinted arms, and a darkish brown body with blue "accents".

I'll make a thread about my hybrids tomorrow or just post them here.

I never actually wanted them to breed, i was kinda shooting for the Jurassic Park idea, having only females (i swore they were too)

guess malcom was right, nature did find a way.

Or i'll just post them now

First guy here is the coolest looking of the offspring.


(his brother is sneaking up behind him)

This is how the rest of them turned out.


Maybe i'll breed the top one with another alenii to bring out the blue... if that works then i'll mate that with that stunning red one of yours.
