Nice looking tank, what size is it? And could you tell us the stock list of whats in there?

all of the fish came from the swamp i duck hunt. the crawfish started out at 1/2 inch and the bluegill were 3/4 and
 
the one in my hand lost his pinchers when he shed last time he looks so helpless with out them

no but theres several people in the inverts section who will, also be wary of big crawdads in tanks with small fish.....they hunt at night and are opportunistic feeders.
 
It will take several sheds for the claws to grow back. The next shed he should get some small claws, and after that, they will grow with each successive shed.
