Tank
Water
The
water in the tank does not need to be more than 15 cm
deep. Normal tap water must be allowed to de-chlorinate
(the chlorine breaks down) for a week, with the filter
on, before you add your animals. De-chlorinating
chemicals are available from aquarium stores to speed
up this process.
Uneaten
food will pollute the water. It is very important not
to overfeed your crayfish. Should this occur, completely
change the water in the aquarium.
The
tank should be shaded from direct sunlight. For yabbies,
the water temperature should not rise above 25o C and
for marron above 24o C. If you are unsure tank thermometers
can be purchased from most aquarium stores. |
