Black Crayfish Pics (Cherax Preissii)

Awsome! how large do they get? & what's their expctd. lifespan?

I think they reach the same size as Destructor.
Max out about 300g ~ 20 cm. Live for 3 to 8yrs.

That sux man. Maybe if you are lucky one of your females has already been fertilized? I'm not too familiar with how crayfish mating works but maybe that's a possibility.

No good, none got preggers.
Oh well ...... back to the drawing board.

Sorry for your loss I was going to say it reminds me of the Black Knight.

It's a secret.
A long forgotten water hole in the deepest, darkest forrest at Hell's Peak. I could show you......but then I'd have to kill you....

It was either Pet Barn or Pet Stock??? The one at Erina.
I've asked them to get some more in. Rang the other day but supplier only had Destructors.
Placed another order so hopefully in 2 weeks they'll have some in.
