Common Name: Red Claw Crab.

Species: Perisesarma bidens.

Habitat: Thailand.

Potential Size: 5cm.

Social Behaviour: Generally peaceful, best kept with medium to large active fish, avoid if you have any delicate bottom dwellers and slow moving species with very long fins. Ensure plenty of hiding spaces if keeping more than one crab. Ideally areas of land should be provided or at the least climbing positions above the aquarium water level. Note: these crabs are very good escape artists so make sure the aquarium is secure.
