anyone here keep apricot lobsters?

if they are cherax holthuisi then everything i've heard from people is that they are indeed very skittish and mostly hide if given a place to. i would think you could put him in a tank with no hide or a very open hide (like a log or driftwood piece that provides just shaded areas). i think if you put him in a tank with no hide they may become stressed. i don't know i've never kept a crayfish with no hide.

Hi, I have an apricot lobster and it is very easy to keep. they are pretty docile mine lives with minnows ghost shrimp and an albino clawed frog(which are all smaller than him) Hiding spots are optional if you have plants or décor. Mine has hiding spots but is active and walks around the tank most of the time. The only time he has ever gone after anything is when I first got him he tried catching some minnows but I put pellets in front of him and he stopped in his tracks.
