Is feeding ghost shrimp safe for crayfish.

Since they are both inverts would there be any fatal parisites that could kill my crayfish.

IMO most likely not. Ghost shrimp are a great feeder shrimp. I use them as treats for my cichlid. Im sure it would be fine. Though I dont know too much on crayfish.

It's a good idea to feed crayfish ghost shrimp. They get nutrients they need from the shells. I have a bunch of crayfish, and will throw 10 shrimp in the tank at the time. When I see there are no more, I get more. 10 usually lasts a couple months.

OMG !! I don't know how things are in the USA but my LFS sell small ghost shrimp at $25 a piece, i couldn't afford one. And you guys make them fish food

They're between 3 and 5 for $1 where I live.

I cant believe how much money some fish stores sell them for.
