Ya man.. i even got a chiller specially for the Marron!! But they always seems to died upon moulting or for no reason Sighhh... The longest surivor was in my tank for 5 months before it went to meet his other friends who went off first.

Like all crustaceans, who normally molt and shedding their skin periodically, shrimps are very sensitive to toxic like NH4 and heavy metals. When their environment becomes toxic( especially HEAVY METALS), molting stops, because the old, hard shell is less permeable than a new, soft one. After a while, however, infections develop under the old shell, along with holes and deformities. That gives an epidemic a chance to develop. |

Exotics are really almost irresistable, just take a look at those foreign galleries from Germany and Japan, can't help but to be drawn toward these beauties. However, we always get a reality check from time to time, since the exoticness often associates with pretty exotic pricing too. We do need to keep our wallets and bank accounts in check too. Through research, trials and discussion among our small yet active crayfish community over here, hopefully we can find a way to sustain these majestic creatures in our sunny island of Singapore. Bro Sharpion, you are brave and really learnt it the hard way man, I feel for you. Marrons are usually among the last couple of species we tried out in our never ending crayfish quest and the same couple of species we are having little success with. Among bros Lobsterman, destination33 and me, I guess we must have lost a sizeable number of these magnificent aquatic critters. |

Brave is not the word man...BLUR is more like it no la, it was a present from someone who didn't understand the implications.
