In addition to ornamental fish, the most farmed in the aquarium circle is shrimp. The best shrimp to raise is the shrimp.
Crawfish are large and very skinny, and are popular all over the country.
Crawfish can be divided into many species, such as sky blue devil, wolf shrimp, dragon pattern and so on.

For newbies, it's best to start with white or orange claws. The price is cheap and easy to raise.
I think crayfish are much better to keep than tropical fish. If you have some experience in fish farming, raising crayfish is a hand-to-hand catch.
This article talks about a few key points to help newbies easily feed.

<h1>First, the preparation before raising shrimp. </h1>
The culture of crawfish is suitable for neutral water quality, and the PH is between 6.5 and 8.5. It doesn't matter if you don't have a reagent to test your PH, tap water at home is within this pH range.
Of course, tap water can not be used directly, it is best to dry for two days.
But many newcomers are seen in the market, think it looks good to buy home, there is no time to raise water. The countermeasure is to use half of the tap water and half of the water in the water heater, and at the same time use the air pump to oxygenate, so as to speed up the time of chlorine volatilization, about two or three hours later can be used.
The chlorine gas used for sterilization in tap water must not be underestimated, it is the killer of many aquatic organisms.

<h1>Second, the choice of bottom sand. </h1>
The choice of bottom sand is not particularly harsh, such as crystal sand, black gold sand, cloud mountain stone and so on. I still recommend coral sand the most. All animals that need to be shelled have a greater need for calcium, because calcium is the main element that makes up the hard shell.
Coral sand dissolves slowly in calcium, which is very good for crawfish.
<h1>Third, the temperature</h1>
Crawfish are also very adaptable to temperature, surviving from 10 to 30 degrees. But the most suitable temperature is still about 24 degrees.
<h1>Fourth, lighting</h1>
Most ornamental fish have little lighting requirements. However, suitable lighting helps the crawfish absorb calcium, and ordinary grass tank lamps can be used to supplement the light. If you can buy UV lights, it may be better, but it is not too necessary.
<h1>5. Shelters</h1>
Dodgers are important, and when crawfish molt, their bodies are very fragile and extremely vulnerable to injury. Therefore, it is necessary to add clay pots, shrimp pots or PVC pipes to the tank to provide shelter.
Each shrimp must have a dodge.
<h1>Sixth, food</h1>
Crawfish are omnivorous. Vegetables, red worms, fish and shrimp, and shrimp for the whole year, they all love to eat. Can be fed once or twice a day. Juvenile shrimp can be fed three times a day.
Wolf shrimp
The rest is daily maintenance, changing a small amount of water every week. When changing water, use a water pipe to pump the bottom and suck out the sediment. This contributes to the healthy growth of crawfish.
Having said a lot, it's actually very simple to do. If you're interested, give it a try.
