I am not familiar with any of those species. Someone in TX may be able to better help you. Are you using them for research or pond stocking as forage food?

C88, very few of us know much about mud bugs. We usually consider them as forage. I expect that you've been in contact with TAMU?
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

I was looking for some crayfish to put in the pond and found out that it's the wrong time of year - they aren't available now. I don't know if that appllies to your specific species tho.

Might call Dr. Richard O. Anderson, near Houston. He's a legendary fisheries biologist who did lots of crayfish work in Missouri. Send me an email and I'll put you in touch with him.

tks! Bob
my intention is pet aquarium, not forage or other purpose, watching & recording their behavior, and try to breed them as hobbies only. Just too many spieces hard to do, so try here to find someone can help in collection, tks!
