Desmond Chow, the founder of Singapore Crawfish, is so convinced that crayfish aquaculture is ripe for investment that he’s spent the past two years, and considerable amounts of his own capital, developing a range of crayfish farming technologies and products, including specialized crayfish feed and high-tech integrated farming systems.
Of the two common commercial species he looked into, he decided that the Australian red claw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus) was preferable to the Louisiana crayfish (Procambarus clarkii), as it produces up to 20 percent more meat.
