Note: Crayfish is capable of killing and eating most smaller bottom dwelling species especially during the night. Be careful when you are selecting other species to go along with this species. They have to be each given their own hiding spots, and the tank must be decorated with that in mind.


[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]It might be worth mentioning they are escape artists too. If there is a space to get out between the tank and lid they will climb any plant or aquarium tube to get out.[/FONT]
Will do - thanks. :)

2 pearl gouramis in a 20 gallon with an aquaclear 500 hanging on the back is apparently plenty of filtration.. ah well, it was in the closet when i was setting up the home for the pearls.

My 300g is seriously over stocked! LOL not news to me I didn't even list all the fish I have. I think I can fit a few more fish LOL... and hardly any of them according them are compatible tank mates. But in reality they all get along so well. All my fish are pretty much non aggressive. The most aggressive fish in my tank is my Rainbow shark! he's the only one I ever see chancing anyone around.
