    Re: crayfish/crawfish

    I went to HEB this weekend and bought 3 of their smallest crayfish. at 1.69 a pound my 3 small ones cost a wopping 19 cents.

    isolated them a few days and the 2 that survived were quite tasty for my puffer.

    Unfortunetly I didn't get to see him eat. maybe next weekend

      Yea,
       I like to isolate mine in a 5 gallon stainless steel tank.   I pretreat the water with salt, bayleaves and other meds then preheat it to  100 degrees C.   It kills off all the parasites and they turn a bright red.

      He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

          Suggestion:  Put little rubberbands on the claws like they do with the lobsters at the grocery store.  They won't have a fighting chance.

              Hello, I have a mbu, about 7.5" and had put what I believe was crawfish in with him purchased at a LFS. He ate 1 or 2 but I think he did not care for them and the crawfish cut the vails of 2 of my angels so I took them out and put them in my 75gal cichlid tank at work, they would team up on the crawfish and after 3 days they were all gone. My MBU baby unfortunately ate 1 of my corys last night, I actually witnessed this. I had fed him in the a.m. and usually feed him again at 7p.m. or so but I guess he did not want to wait. I always knew this would be a possability but I did'nt think it would be for another 6mo or so. I know he is only doing what is natural to him.

              My MBU is now in a 220gal set up just last week,purchased at Fish Gallery.Omar was and his staff were a great help. They also did the instalation, on time, very profassional job! I will post pictures this weekend

                  The demensions of the tank are 6'x2'x29". To be honest I do not Know a price on the tank alone, I was quoted for a package deal. Tank, stand. canopy, 72" lunar aqualight and eheim 2262 plumbed underneath.
