Freshwater Pom Pom Crab

This listing is for a freshwater pom pom crab (Ptychognathus Barbatus). These are awesome peaceful crabs and will be a great addition to your tank. They might go after small dwarf shrimp and snails but we keep them with larger adult dwarf shrimps with no issues. These crabs are fully aquatic, but we recommend having a lid on your tank to prevent them from escaping.

Freshwater Pom Pom Crabs are very active and intuitive compared to most small crabs and will take to many varieties of food. We feed them a variety of high-quality sinking pellets. These are small crabs and the purchase size will range roughly from 1/2 inch to 1 inch.
