Safe to feed live crayfish?

[rlane]

I have a very clear and clean stream that runs through my back yard which has a limitless supply of crayfish. I have never fed them before but I would think that the Rays would like a live treat every once and a while. Do you guys think it is safe to do so?

Just because it's clear doesn't mean it's chemical free. But I believe crayfish fall under the indicator species category.

Do you know the origin of the stream?
What about the legality of taking crayfish?

i would be worried about parasites.

I wouldn't if you really like your Rays. Parasites are a big risk
