 Caught a cray fish.

hi i live in England, and i was with my son, going on what we call a "river trip" basicly we take our como gear, a knive and a camel back and walk randomly down the river for the hell of it. anyway we were walking a shollow bit and found a crayfish and we desided to keep it since, you can keep it if your under 18 or have a license. well my son is under 18 so i let him have it. i gave him my old terrapine container "30 gall" and i’ve done a bit of research and i’ve got, a pebles as a substrate a couple of pond weeds and i found out he loves to eat the crix that my gecko doesnt eat. i called him flippy.

Sounds pretty cool, I like crayfish, they’re easy to care for and interactive when they want to be. Mine learned to "beg" for food, when she’s hungry she stands on her tippy toes at the front of the tank.
Congratulations on the new addition.

they’ll eat pretty much anything. I feed mine shrimp pellets and algae pellets and they really seem to enjoy that. The spirulina algae is really good for them too, lots of nutrients.

I use Wardley’s premium algae disks, and I think the shrimp pellets are by Wardley’s too. You could also feed frozen bloodworms, but not too much because they’ll make the water dirty.
Hope this helps.
