Keeping this in consideration, can crayfish regrow limbs?Yes they grow back, It may seem cruel but clipping off the “thumb” portion of the claw will make them much safer to keep with fish, they grow back also (during moults). how long does it take for crayfish to grow claws back? Adult size is reached by crayfish in the wild in about 4 years. They can live from 20 to 30 years. During the breeding season, males fight for the right to copulate and, in these competitions, they may lose a leg or claw. This is no problem, as they will slowly grow back. Also question is, can crayfish regenerate? Can crayfish or other crustaceans regenerate lost limbs? Yes. If they lose the big one, they regenerate a new claw on that side at their next molt, whereas the little one that was left behind grows to be the new major chela.Can crayfish live without claws?Crayfish shouldn’t be kept together, especially if they keep tearing each other’s claws off. The one with no claws will need help eating anyway, and won’t be able to compete with the one with 2 claws. They’ve been together for over a yr. Most of the time I’ve noticed they loose there claw in molting.
