Hi, All,

My name is Raymond. I recently purchase 3 bule lobsters. The seller indicates these are 'red claw blue crayfish'. The photo they provided does look like it. However, it does not appear to be 'red claw' when I receive them. Attached are photos I took on these lobsters for your reference. It would be grteatly appreciated if you can comment on what they are. I look forward to learning from you. Thank you.

those aren't redclaws. Not 100% but those look like P.alleni's. Redclaws refer to an Australian species of crayfish(or yabbie if you're an aussie). You'll hear them referred to as Cherax quads or Cherax quadricarinatus. Here's some nice pictures of some
