The Pink Ghost Crayfish is a rare and striking color morph of the Procambarus clarkii species, selectively bred for its translucent pink or pastel coloration. It’s a popular choice among aquarists for its beautiful hue and hardy nature.

🩷 Basic Information

• Scientific name: Procambarus clarkii (variant: “Pink Ghost”)

• Common names: Pink Ghost Crayfish, Pink Lobster, Pink Transparent Crayfish

• Origin: Selective breeding from the Louisiana Crayfish (Procambarus clarkii)

• Size: 4–5 inches (10–13 cm) when fully grown

• Lifespan: 2–3 years (up to 4 with excellent care)

• Behavior: Territorial and semi-aggressive, especially with its own kind

🌿 Tank Requirements

• Tank size: Minimum 15–20 gallons for one adult

• Substrate: Fine sand or smooth gravel for burrowing

• Hiding spots: Essential — add caves, driftwood, rocks, and plants

• Water temperature: 20–26°C (68–79°F)

• pH level: 6.5–7.8

• Hardness: 6–15 dGH

• Filtration: Strong and stable — crayfish produce a lot of waste

• Lighting: Moderate — too bright light can stress them

🦐 Tank Mates

• Best alone — they can attack fish or other invertebrates.

• If you want to try tank mates, choose:

  • Fast, upper-level fish (like danios or guppies)

  • Avoid slow or bottom dwellers (corydoras, snails, loaches — they’ll be attacked)

• Never house two crayfish together unless you have a very large, well-decorated tank with multiple hiding spots.
