Hello everyone ... I just love inverts!!!

I have several different kinds. I have Devil crabs, which are semi-aquatic crabs, similar to red Thai crabs, only not quite as aggressive. Mine can live together, in small social groups. They are actually breeding too, I have several different sizes of baby crabs in there, which tells me they've been having little crablettes all along. They are soooo cute.

I keep those Tylomenia snails, otherwise known as rabbit/elephant snails and they too are making babies. They are very cool, but you have to be very careful what you put them in with, or they will end up being lunch or dinner.

I keep different types of shrimp (cherry, long-arm, Cameroon, Japanese shrimp and those other big ones, can't think of their name). Shrimp might be simple ... but darn interesting.

I also keep crayfish, mainly as a meal for my puffer fish.

So yeah .... love the inverts!
 
I love inverts too, although more ornamental shrimp, such as Crystal Red Shrimp... used to keep Cherry Reds as well, but now just got Marble Crays, Crystal Red Shrimps and a couple of Zebra Nerite Snails...
 
I'm most in love with my little crabs, they have to be the most amazing thing I have, especially when you see the teeny tiny babies they have!!! I live in the UK, so "marbled crays" is a dirty word over here, and also illegal, so even though they make great puffer food, one has to be careful. :eek:
 
Lucky i live in Hong Kong, where pretty much anything goes...

Your guy will grow his claw back eventually, as he moults, although it might not be as large as it once was. But that's the good thing about crayfish, and crabs, they can re-grow their appendages - shame we can't do that as humans! :)
