About This Species
The Marbled Crayfish, or Marmorkrebs, is famous for its unique ability to reproduce via parthenogenesis; all individuals are female and can clone themselves. They are extremely hardy and prolific, making them a potential invasive species that should never be released. They are interesting to observe but require a dedicated tank to prevent them from overrunning a community setup.
