Blue Brazos Dwarf Mexican Crayfish | Cambarellus Texanus

Blue Brazos Dwarf Mexican Crayfish

The Blue Brazos Dwarf Mexican Crayfish, or Cambarellus texanus, comes from some rivers and streams in Mexico. These small, crayfish, also known as Blue Brazos, grow up to 2.5 inches and thrive in tanks of at least 5 gallons. With their territorial nature, Blue Brazos Dwarf Crayfish prefer heavily decorated tanks filled with plenty of hiding spots. We feed our Blue Brazos a protein-rich diet of artemia pellets, frozen bloodworms, and other quality foods, along with soft algae pellets or wafers to keep them healthy and active.

DISCLAIMER: Some states prohibit the import of crayfish. It is the consumer’s responsibility to be aware of their state’s laws.
