It has been attacked by another bigger crayfish of the same species. But it was hit between the head and the body. Some flesh has been expose and the shell is dented in. I was wondering if it would recover if it molt?
 
It should fully recover as long as the damage is not to severe. I've seen them pretty messed up from fighting with other crays and recovered very well. You may need more hiding places and plants for them to hang out on...add a cuddle bone for calcium to help with their exoskeleton and some almond leaves to hide under and consume(they also look sweet)..
 
What is a cuddle bone? The damage is: 1.Twisted body 2. Exposed Flesh 3. Dented shell
