Our handcrafted dwarf crayfish breeding tubes are made from non-toxic clay commonly used in the making of traditional Chinese teapots and are safe for freshwater and marine Aquariums. The entrances to the caves are larger than the standard shrimp tubes making it a perfect shelter for dwarf crayfish. The breeding tubes are also suitable for Caridina and Neocaridina Shrimp.

Key Features and Important Notes:

  • Tube holes are large and provide a natural shelter and breeding ground for Mexican Dwarf Crayfish.
  • We use Non-Toxic Clay commonly used in teapots to make our shrimp spawning tubes.
  • The tubes are also great for smaller bottom-dwelling fish such as Pigmy Corydoras and ornamental shrimp species. 
  • The porous material of the tubes makes an excellent breeding ground for nitrifying bacteria aiding filtration.

      My dwarf crayfish claimed one of these tubes within a day and now barely leaves it. The clay material seems genuinely safe, no weird smell or cloudiness in the tank, and the openings are sized well for a full-grown crayfish to back into.

      The clay feels dense and smooth, not like the flimsy resin caves I’ve tried before. My dwarf crayfish slipped right in and claimed it as her hideout within an hour, and it sits heavy enough that it won’t tip over.

      Sofia Q. ★★★★★

      I was worried the crayfish would ignore it, but within a day my female was already backing into one of the entrances. The clay has a nice matte, earthy look that doesn't stand out like plastic decor does.
