Good luck, I hope she takes it easy and doesn't flood you with crayfish! They really are cool little creatures.
Do you have legal crayfish in Florida? I need small crayfish for my Puffers. Currently, I am am feeding the Puffer Red & Black Ramshorn Snails. Also, Rosey Feeders. My Puffer will not eat the Rosey, unless it is pink. I bought a self cloning crayfish because Puffers like to eat them. Puffer refuses to eat frozen red worms. She Loved them as a baby. Now she will not eat red or black worms, or clam on the half shell or frozen raw fish. Very picky. What do you suggest? She Loves chasing her prey. I made a Rain Forrest for her and she Loves to Sneak around the plant leaves. Puffer thinks I do not see her.
So: as far as we have understood (though if anyone has different info, feel free to chime in), three species of crayfish are illegal in Florida. According to this doc, they are the Australian red claw (Cherax quadricarinatus), red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) and white river crayfish (Procambarus zonangulas). What that means is that self-cloning marmorkrebs actually appear to be legal. In some other states, they are not. We don't carry them right now, but since you already have one, you should be fine.
For a good alternative, we've always had great success with getting CPO crayfish to breed. I don't see anything indicating they are illegal in Florida. I bet you could have a thriving population within a few months. We do carry these, you can buy them here. You can read all about caring for them in the CPO crayfish care guide.
If you need any more info, feel free to let me know.
planning on setting the cray up in a 55g and hoping the clone so can be feeders. will not be "keeping" them with said turtles.
