Red Claw Crayfish Cherax Quadricarinatus 5cmOverview: The Red Claw Crayfish, scientifically known as Cherax Quadricarinatus, is a striking freshwater species renowned for its vibrant red claws and stunning blue-green body. Reaching up to 8 inches in length, this crayfish adds both color and activity to any aquarium. They are not only a visual delight but also fascinating to observe due to their active scavenging and burrowing behavior.
Origin: Native to the freshwater habitats of Northern Australia and Southern New Guinea, the Red Claw Crayfish is adapted to a variety of environmental conditions, making it a resilient choice for aquarium enthusiasts.
Feeding: Omnivorous by nature, the Red Claw Crayfish has a flexible diet that can include pellets, vegetables, and occasional meaty treats like fish or shrimp. Their diet contributes to their overall health, coloration, and vitality. It's important to ensure a balanced diet to prevent nutritional deficiencies.
Tank Mates: Choosing the right tank mates is crucial for the Red Claw Crayfish, as they can exhibit territorial behavior. Ideal companions include larger fish species that can hold their own and are not small enough to be considered prey. It is advisable to avoid keeping them with very small fish or other invertebrates that they might harm.
Aggression: While they are generally peaceful towards larger tank mates, Red Claw Crayfish can be aggressive towards each other and smaller creatures. Providing ample hiding spots and enough space can minimize territorial disputes, especially in community tanks.
Experience Level: Due to their specific care requirements and potential for aggression, Red Claw Crayfish are best suited for intermediate to experienced aquarium hobbyists who can adequately manage their environment and social dynamics.
Water Parameters: To thrive, Red Claw Crayfish require well-oxygenated water with a pH range of 6.5-8.0 and temperatures between 22-28°C (72-82°F). Regular water changes and monitoring for water quality are essential to maintain their health and reduce the risk of disease.
In summary, the Red Claw Crayfish is a captivating species that, with proper care and attention to tank dynamics, can be a rewarding addition to many freshwater aquariums. Their care requires a committed aquarist ready to meet their dietary, environmental, and social needs.

My dogs favorite balls
Size: Medium
These are great for my dog who always has to have a ball in her mouth. Not too hard so I don't have to worry about her teeth. They last for ever. They do lose their shape a little over time (like I said, she always has a ball in her mouth) they become a little oval in shape. They still bounce, she still chases it and she still chews on it so I don't think she notices or cares. I've gotten her a bag full of these over time and I have only seen one that she chewed a chunk out.

My Dachshunds Love These
Size: Small
These balls are durable, flexible material, highly chewable without being easily destroyed. I stuff them with Milkbone Maro Snacks, which are just the right size to twist into the holes in the ball. My dogs literally get an hour+ chewing and chasing entertainment from these. They chew them, they sometimes 'pop' out of their mouths, go rolling across the floor, dogs chasing them. This satisfies their urge to hunt prey. Dachshunds can easily tear this kind of stuff-it-toy apart. These have lasted for a long time without tearing or shredding. I would NOT recommend them for a dog much larger than a tweenie weenie. They're a bit on the small side and might be swallowed by a larger dog. It would be cool it they also came in a larger size (and probably ball wall thickness also) for the bigger dogs to enjoy. These stuff-it chew balls are better than the kong balls my dogs had before these. Highly recommend them.

My puppy’s favorite fetch toy!
Size: Small
Update Aug 27, 2024: After 10 months, these are still his favorite ball. He’s obsessed with fetching and plays with them all day. They do bounce really high. Unfortunately, the small size aren’t available for sale anywhere anymore. I tried the medium size, and he has a bit of trouble hanging on to them, but he manages. Weirdly, he prefers the orange one, but he also plays with the blue one.
My 7 month old Shih Tzu puppy loves to fetch, and these are his new favorites. They’re small enough to fit in his mouth, and they are made of hard plastic, so he’s able to hold on to them. They have a lot of bounce, and this adds to the fun for him. I highly recommend them.

Genuinely bummed that these great balls can’t stand up against my Chloè.
Size: Medium
I love all the Chuckit brand of balls. I found that the Strabo and glow balls in the Chuckit line are the softest, and as such, don't last as long as the rest of Chuckit line of balls. Having said that, they do last longer than than every other brand I've tried (and I do believe I’ve tried every brand available on the market today.)
The strato balls do bounce higher than any of the other balls in the Chuckit line. They really are a good value.

Great dog balls at a great price
Size: Medium
The balls are a favorite for my dog. I could have done without the hole through the middle because I don't do treats in balls anyway. My dog loves balls for their own merit. I needed replacement balls for my Nerf Dog Ball launcher. It seems the originals have disappeared from the market. I took a chance because the price is right and this Chuck-it ball works very well so we're liking this ball a lot. So far my Dachsund, who can destroy a tennis ball (the kind they are selling as Nerf Dog replacements) in 3 minutes has not done any damage to this one so that's a win. I recommend this as a much better ball than the fuzzy tennis balls. I like the colors too since many dog toys are green (which gets lost in the lawn, etc.) or red (even though dogs have red/green color blindness. Blue and orange are good and pretty easy to find. I liked these well enough that this set was my second purchase so I will have spares in case the others are lost.
