I have a real cod skull. Will my cray get calcium from it
Hi, this may be a stupid question, but I’ve been concerned about my cray’s (valley flame) calcium intake as of late and the real actual 5-inch fish skull on my bookshelf has been giving me the side eye. if i put this in will he get calcium from it, and if so what are the proper preparations I should make before adding it? I’ve been thinking of using it as an anchor for the new plants I’ve been meaning to get.
As you can see there are several smaller vertebrae i could snap off if that might work better. ID was provided by the bone hunting subreddit, bless their souls. My tank is 20gal with several live plants, just one cray. He’s about 2-3in i believe, with the claws.

My newest friend
Hey I just got this big fellow, he’s in a holding tank by himself while I set up his personal 20 Gallon Long. I plan for many caves and plants and rocks. I’m nervous about him but he seems to be doing very well, is eating well and scavenging through the sand and even picking up pebbles and inspecting them. Are there any tips and tricks anyone would be willing to share? (The mopani wood has released so many tannins lol)

Anyone keeping terrestrial crays?
This setup by a reddit user intrigued me and I'd like to replicate it. Unfortunately, the user's account has been deleted so I can't exactly ask them questions. If anyone has ever kept terrestrial crays in a similar setup please do share them. Thank you :)

Help! Molting anxiety.
He hasn’t moved in about an hour. He must’ve started while I was at school. He was looking good this morning, though he did refuse his food yesterday.
Does this look like it’s going well? Does he need help?

Survival Rate of Juvenile Ghost Crayfish
I kept around 40 Juvenile Ghost Crayfish, size app 1.5", individually in an 8" by 4" by 4" tank, in a centralized system, ie all crayfish shared the same water.
Is it normal to have a couple of deaths weekly? Those who died were feeding fine the day before.
I used to keep them together, thus death is not as noticeable (as they will be eaten by other crayfish) as in the current setup.
What is the survival rate of juvenile ghost crayfish?
Out of the 40 Juvenile Ghost Crayfish, how many do you think will survive to adulthood?
At this rate, I expect only 75%, ie 30, will make it.

Someone decided they didn't need 2 claws anymore
This little one just molted and lost a claw in the process. Everything else came out 100% perfect and the voracious appetite is still there

Is he dying what should I do?
Last might my Cray stood in 2 corners of his tank kinda standing straight up just clawing at the glass but not actually moving this morning I found him laying on his back not moving, I thought he was dead I went in I moved him with my bet and put him face up but he did try to move away from the net. Now he hasn't moved from his upright position what can I do?
