Black Kong Zebra Crayfish (Cherax sp)
Black Kong Zebra Crayfish
Add a bold and exotic invertebrate to your freshwater aquarium with the Black Kong Zebra Crayfish. This rare and highly sought-after crayfish features a striking jet-black body accented by distinctive zebra-like striping, creating an eye-catching contrast unlike any other freshwater crustacean. Its unique appearance and active personality make it an excellent centerpiece for species-only or carefully planned invertebrate aquariums.
Black Kong Zebra Crayfish are active scavengers that spend their time exploring, climbing, and foraging throughout the aquarium. Providing plenty of caves, rocks, driftwood, and hiding places will help them feel secure, especially after molting.

For the best results, house the Black Kong Zebra Crayfish in a well-covered aquarium, as crayfish are capable climbers and may escape through small openings. They require plenty of hiding places, especially during molting, when they are most vulnerable. While they can coexist with some tank mates, avoid keeping them with slow-moving fish, delicate plants, or other bottom-dwelling invertebrates that may become targets.
Every specimen is carefully selected and professionally packed to help ensure it arrives healthy and ready to acclimate to its new aquarium.
Please Note: As live animals, each Black Kong Zebra Crayfish is unique. Color intensity, striping, and size may vary slightly from the photos shown.
