Cool, what kind of crayfish is it? When you say red is it a orange dwarf or a Clarkii? Don't know, how big are they? If over 3" it is a Clarkii and you will need a biger tank ASAP. Also, crayfish tend to murder eachother when some poor soul molts. Make sure to have plenty of hiding spots-likely calls for alarger tank. Also, baby crayfish are really bad about killing their brothers and sisters during molts as they are in limited space with limit resources in nature.

I'll take some of those babys if you decide to get rid of them.

hi

They are red swamp crayfish. About 4 in right now.they get along fine and don't fight at all. They each have a home in there and I tend to find them together. As for therapies I'm not sure how many are still in there but if any do survive yes I'm getting rid of them
