What crayfish species should i breed for some spare cash? (as in would sell easy). Not tryin to make much just a few bucks here and there + i love to breed animals. I was thinking marble crays because they are asexaul. If they have 50-several hundred eggs and i sell the fry $1 each thats some decent cash. Any suggestions? where should i buy from?

I'd preffer to buy them from an online store not a small time dealer, never ends up working for me. any stores online that sell em?
 
I would like to breed the marbled but I dont see them as a big seller as they arent very "appearence appealing". What about Cherax holthuisi, Electric Blue Crayfish Orconectes Durelli, or Cherax misolicus. Anyone have any experiance with these? Which ones could i breed in a 20 gallon (with a 10 gal. for the fry till they sell)? thx

I never bred crays but have read up on it!

If you get a male an female they mite breed if they do move the female a seperate 10g once the lil crays r off her tail free swiming remove her and put in pvc pipe or straws for the crays to hide or the biggers will cannabalize the small.

If you can find iran jaya crayfish and get them to breed you'll have good money i know alot of people who want them including me but cannot find them...
