Denatured alcohol (now I know its a bit harsh on their shells and will probably degrade in around a year) I have another crawfish with only 1 claw Im planning on preserving in a %75 isopropyl and %25 glycerine solution

Im not going to eat it but you can! Denatured alcohol has a bunch of GREAT health effects!
