Yabbies (Cherax destructor) Care Guide and Tank Mates

 

Overview

• Common Name: Yabby

• Scientific Name: Cherax destructor

• Origin: Australia (freshwater rivers, lakes, and ponds)

• Lifespan: 5–7 years with proper care

• Size: Up to 30 cm (12 inches), though commonly around 15–20 cm (6–8 inches) in aquariums

 

Tank Requirements

 

1. Tank Size:

• Minimum 20 gallons for a single yabby; 40+ gallons for multiple individuals.

• Larger tanks reduce aggression and provide more territory.

 

2. Water Parameters:

• Temperature: 18–25°C (64–77°F)

• pH: 6.5–8.0

• Hardness: 100–250 ppm (moderately hard to hard water)

• Filtration: A strong filter is needed to handle waste, but avoid strong currents. Sponge filters work well.

• Water Changes: Regular 20–30% water changes to maintain quality.

 

3. Substrate and Decorations:

• Substrate: Sand or fine gravel, as yabbies like to dig and burrow.

• Hiding Spots: Essential to reduce stress; use PVC pipes, caves, rocks, or driftwood.

• Plants: Live plants are not recommended as yabbies tend to uproot and eat them; opt for hardy plants like Java fern attached to rocks.

• Lid: A secure lid is necessary since yabbies are known to climb and escape.

 

Diet

 

Yabbies are omnivorous scavengers and will eat a variety of foods, including:

• Protein Sources: Shrimp pellets, sinking fish food, cooked shrimp, and fish.

• Vegetables: Zucchini, carrots, spinach, and peas.

• Occasional Treats: Algae wafers, live or frozen bloodworms.

• Feeding Frequency: Feed every 1–2 days, ensuring they get enough but do not overfeed to prevent water quality issues.

 

Behavior and Temperament

• Temperament: Territorial and sometimes aggressive, especially towards other bottom dwellers.

• Activity: Nocturnal but may become active during the day when comfortable.

• Molting: Yabbies molt as they grow; they will hide during molting and should not be disturbed. Provide calcium-rich foods to support shell development.

• Aggression: Can become territorial, especially in confined spaces, so provide enough hiding spots to reduce stress.

 

Tank Mates

 

Yabbies can be aggressive, so tank mates should be chosen carefully.

• Suitable Tank Mates:

• Fast-moving fish (e.g., danios, larger tetras, and rainbowfish)

• Large, non-aggressive fish that stay in the upper levels (e.g., silver dollars)

• Snails (though yabbies may eat them over time)

• Other yabbies (only in large tanks with ample hiding spots)

• Tank Mates to Avoid:

• Slow-moving or bottom-dwelling fish (e.g., plecos, corydoras)

• Small fish that can be caught (e.g., guppies, neon tetras)

• Delicate fish that may be stressed by the yabby’s presence

• Shrimp and other crustaceans (as they may be eaten)

 

Common Health Issues

• Shell Damage: Caused by aggressive encounters; ensure enough calcium for shell repair.

• Parasites and Fungal Infections: Maintain good water quality and avoid introducing sick fish.

• Stress: Caused by inadequate hiding spaces or poor water quality, leading to reduced molting success.

 

Breeding

• Yabbies can breed in captivity if provided with proper conditions.

• Females carry eggs under their tails (berried) for several weeks until they hatch.

• To breed successfully, separate breeding pairs from other tank inhabitants to avoid predation.

Our shop always delivers healthy shrimp and fish with the best color of their own.

However, the shrimp and fish you receive may be discolored and the reason of this issue is strong vibration during transportation and they're not be fed during the transport period

To handle this problem we highly recommend to you:

🚩Let the fish relax helps them adapt to any changes in water temperature in the tank. Also prevents pH shock - an imbalance between the water in the shop tank and your tank.

🚩Place the fish bag in a cool, corner, and dark place. Prevent the bag from being bumped, slipped, or dropped. This'll give your new fish a good recovery and acclimatization after a shaky ride from the shop to your home. 

🚩Feed your old fish first to distract them, preventing them from bullying your new fish.

🚩Your new aquarium tank should have a pH of zero ammonia and chlorine before adding new fish.

🚩Turn off the lights, reduce the glare in the room, or limit the light entering the aquarium. This will help the new fish not be stressed.
