I got a crayfish a few weeks ago and I put it in my 10 gallon tank with some tetras and platies. I learned the hard way that platies and crayfish don't mix. Luckily I have another 10 gallon tank that I put the crayfish in. His new tank is looking very empty. Are there any fish that I can keep with him?
 
well first i would suggest that you spend several weeks training your crawfish to be less aggressive by feeding them only algae wafers (don't worry it has everything they need) and drop it right in front of it's claws. after a few weeks, their hunting instinct will be dulled and you can then test it by adding the cheapest fish you can get that isn't a feeder fish. if the fish isn't gone by the end of the week then you have a success! just make sure to keep him well fed as starvation can wake up their hunting instinct. good luck!
