I have about 4 adult craydads in a 10 gal. aquarium. It seems that they spawned (not sure thats what you'd call it) and I have about a dozen or so tiny crawdads now. What do I need to feed them? Brine shrimp? I really am clueless in this arena. I feed the adults tiny sinking pellets. Thanks.

feed them the same thing, they will tear bits off when the pellets get soft or you can crush some up..
Goofing off is a slang term for engaging in recreation or an idle pastime while obligations of work or society are neglected........... Wikipedia

my marmokrebs (a self cloning crayfish) eat sinking pellets, frozen peas, blood worms etc.. you can tell when a crayfish is pregnant by checking under the tail for eggs.. i've got 4 aquariums with young crays (2 of those have rosy red minnows as well) and 1 55 tank full of baby crays (over 100 easy) they like snails as well.. i crush them and let them sink here's a berried cray;

i'm using them in my aquaponics setup.. the smaller ones will be feed for yp and bg..
i put three berried krebs into the pool with a couple dozen larger ones.. i should have plenty grow big enough to eat, i've got a few tanks with berried crays as well..

I bought a dozen or so off Craigslist. Used most for bait when I took the wife fishing. The smallmouth love them. I was thinking of dumping them until I saw the offspring. Looks like I'll have more bait soon. Thanks for the replies and info.
