    He is in a ten with some Ember Tetras, he is full grown and is only about an inch long.

    My lfs just got them in and sent me an advertisement showing them.
    I assume the tetras keep there distance? Or with the dwarf size that isn't a issue for ya?

    <---I have a 10g with some yellow shrimp and endlers in it right now...not really happy with the stocking of it, but taking my time to ponder what I want to do. I thought about the dwarf crabs..but I dunno yet :confused:

    They are getting $19.99 ea http://www.oddballonline.com

    Not really a problem with the dwarf cray species, that's about the going price. I got mine from a breeder friend in Lancaster Pa. but I also have another breeder/importer friend in Ca. The person in Pa. sells them for $18 and the one in Ca. sells them for $20. My friend in Pa. also sells the Thai Micro Crabs, but to be honest she says they are kinda boring, interesting, but boring :)
