Thanks for the help BV. I really know nothing at all about identifying crays yet or exactly what I'm looking for. I'm just happy that I have the cray in my tank now and he seems to be making himself a happy home. I have been away from home for a couple of days and I came back to find the gravel in one corner almost all cleaned away in a pile but I guess that spot wasn't right for him. He has a spot where there are two rock under the driftwood and the pretty much has hollowed out a nice big spot under the rocks. I was watching him today and every couple of minutes he would come out with about 4 or 5 pieces of gravel in his claws and he would throw them on the pile then go back to work under the rocks. I don't have my camera with me today though unfortunately, but hopefully I will be able to get some pictures of him working again some other time.

Thanks HAAA, today marks the start of trout season here in Pennsylvania and that means most of the water here is game for collecting minnows so I'm hoping I will get a chance to catch some fish for this tank soon.

Also I does anybody know the best food for crays? I put a little of an algae wafer which got ignored and made a mess. Do I need to get some sinking pellets or something for him or something else? Thanks!
