OK it’s people like you "Animals_are_my_life" that piss me off!!! You don’t even know how to care for them, and you don’t even know if it lives in water!!! Well DUH it lives in water if you don’t even know that why would you take them home?! by the way the way you said it, it was still alive?

ok, get a ten gallon tank, fill it with fresh water, they don’t live in salt water. Give them some gravel and places to hide like caves. They eat fish food, shrimp pellets, blood worms, algea wafers, etc. Once you establish them in the tank just watch them because they can be cannibalistic, or they can breed. It’s best to have them separated if possible, but since your kind of pressed for time that can wait for now.

I live in louisiana so we eat boiled crawfish all the time or at least when they’re in season. It’s really good.

crayfish really only eat bactearia and they are freshwater i should know because i go to a pond every once in a while and catch them by flipping rocks. i have crayfish bigger than my own turtle so i keep my turtle with my sisters turtle.
