Your direction of thinking with the diet is bang on. I often see them pet crayfish in the store and wonder how easy they are to breed them in captivity. That would solve everything wouldn't it? Frogs are easy to breed, if you have the right kind. And most lay thousands of eggs. Most are discarded by the breeder so they can concentrate on the amount they desire, but if you had a larger setup, you could have an endless frog supply. Fish of course, are easy enough to buy bulk at a petstore or fishstore. Like all feeders, it's best to gutload them first.

It sounds like you have a fine setup for your young snappers. If I am currect, they're are only two species of snappers, and no subspecies.
