Ask Finn

A small dwarf crayfish from the high-altitude lakes and rivers of central Mexico, displaying a warm brown to olive coloration with fine patterning and reaching about 1.5 inches. It is generally peaceful with fish too large to catch and prefers cooler water temperatures (65–74°F) reflecting its highland native habitat.
