About Diminutus
Cambarellus diminutus is a very small Cambarellus dwarf crayfish. The line we offer is typically light in color, often with subtle tan or brown patterning depending on the animal, age, molt stage, and lighting.
They are not a transparent crayfish line. The appeal is their small size, lighter coloration, and active dwarf crayfish behavior in a properly set up aquarium.
Care overlaps with other Cambarellus dwarf crayfish: stable water, prepared sinking foods, hiding places, and careful tank mate choices.

Cambarellus diminutus for small aquariums
Cambarellus diminutus is a very small dwarf crayfish in the aquarium hobby. Our line is generally light colored rather than transparent, and it is well suited to small planted aquariums when kept with proper hides and stable water.
Because of its size, Cambarellus diminutus can fit keepers who want dwarf crayfish behavior without a larger crayfish presence in the tank. Review the dwarf crayfish care guide and shop availability before ordering.
