General Description:

The blue marron (also known as the hairy marron or Margaret River Marron), is a freshwater crayfish found in Western Australia, with a sometimes electric blue carapace that makes it quite distinctive in appearance. They are mostly vegetarian, and nocturnal, foraging for food at night, with an ability to burrow when necessary. They are extremely hardy animals and are becoming increasingly popular as marine pets.
