Here are a few pics of some of my inverts. All are caught from local waters. The blue clarkii are the same tone of blue as the day I caught them. They just cleaned up good after moulting.

Sweet!!! :y220e: That coloration of the clarkii is awesome! Must have gotten some good feed from somewhere in the wild!!
I get my Clarkii from local crawfishermen. I have four of them that are on the lookout for any blues that they catch and save them for me. The blues don't occur often in the wild. The average fisherman catches about 500 lbs. daily and out of four guys, only ten blues were caught last season. You were right about the feed. They flood the rice fields after harvest by the spring there is plenty algae to eat. I come across some reds that are huge.
Great shots, thanks for sharing! I got my 1st cray (P.clarkii) 6 months ago and my love affair with them is going strong.
That's in the works as we speak. we have to wait for them to grow out. Hatchlings looked pinkish at first.
