Technically they're not crayfish. They're freshwater prawns. We have a variety here in Trini. Crayfish are not native to our country. We've brought down and bred the Redclaw Crayfish (Cherax Quadrcarinatus if you wanna research them) Those are the blue ones you'll find in most petshops.

I've had years of experience with these and a bit of experience with the local prawns as well. Some of them are very similar to crayfish and very attractive for aquarium purposes. Hit me a pm if you need anything ;)

Here's an example of one of my favourite local species:
