Procambarus clarkii "Tricolor Ghost"

Male 

Tricolor Ghost Lobster  - Freshwater Crayfish

Procambarus clarkii "Tricolor Ghost" are a breed of crayfish that is fairly new to the US aquarium trade. Each "Tricolor Ghost" may have a different pattern. Find the pattern you like the best. They are called a "Tricolor Ghost" because they have some white on the tail like many "Ghost" breeds, but the tricolor has 3 different colors in their pattern. This makes for a fun crayfish to photograph. I love these because you can something like you have never seen before to add to your aquarium. Check out each photo to find a crayfish you love the pattern.

One thing to note is that after molt, color may lighten up considerably making a tricolor look more like a blue ghost or a chocolate ghost. These can be similar in their style and colors at times. As this molting time period passes, the colors will typically darken again. When these photos were taken, I placed them in the grouping I felt they fit best. 

Male crayfish are heavily desired as pets because they develop large claws and more aggressive behavior, giving them the lobster-like personality many love. 

Each crayfish here is unique. Patterns may darken or lighten as crayfish molts and ages. Because of this I have exact photos of each of the crayfish offered. While I am currently breeding crayfish, this class came directly from another breeder. Some have injuries from fighting other crayfish, which I have tried to note on here. This is not too much of a concern as crayfish regrow and heal lost or damaged appendages, often after their next molt.
