I feel so bad after you told me these naming stories… her name had no significance. And I didn’t change it after she had babies.
RIP Johnny.

I didn’t think a crayfish could go far either but I was wrong.
I had one of those electric blue crayfish. I had fish before but compared to a crayfish they are way more interesting.
Anywho, had the crayfish for awhile. It was stationed in our dining room area. We had an apartment so the dining area was like right where we walked in. The crayfish was a lovely chap (until we found he was actually a girl, but that’s another story). It would eat pellet food, ate the goldfish we stuck in there, it was all good.
One day my wife was changing the water and after it was all done she left the fish net resting on top of the tank. We went out to do some shopping.
Couple hours later and we come home. I think it was winter time because we went to settle down on the couch with a blanket. I picked up the blanket off the couch and out drops our little blue girl. Scared the crap out of me because I was NOT expecting that. She was all dried and shriveled up. Turns out that net was close enough to the water that the crayfish decided to use it to climb out. That’s the only explanation we could come up with.
We drop her in the tank and she was floating. We kind of thought the worst and she would die but after an hour she sunk to the bottom. She ended up living a long life after that. Even had baby crayfish after we added a white one in there.
Anyway, long story short this little crayfish traveled a solid 20 feet, climbed our couch, and got into the blanket.
