So I got 125G planted mostly anubias, java fern, water wisteria and lot of dwrifwood. I wanted to add 1 of each crayfish (red, blue, white and black) as bottom scavengers, I'm tired of catfish and loaches, here is the scoop: After some research I got mixed information that they will destroy all the plants in my tank, and some even RECOMMENDED to keep them in planted tank. :rolleyes: Does anyone keep them in planted tank?

There some Crayfish species will gaze on plants and destroy all plants, some will munching on plants but not destroy the plants, some will eat dead leaves. So its like we trying to mix our predators fish species together :) some works out well and some turn out really bad for some folks. I'll take my risk and try it out...At least If I fail I don't lose much like mixing predators fish species! :)
 
Usually, I decided to go for it when nobody response to the thread lol
It's also mean not many folks trying this combo or already tried it out but fail and don't want to share the experiences hehehe
I'm risk taker so I'll try it out myself...might be I have better luck! This hobby fun cause of these new combos :)
