well basically I have a wonderfully peacefull tank... and i recently (5 days ago) bought a blue crayfish.... hes around 5" long not including the feelers and claws.... anyways at the same time I bought an L133 snowdrop pleco which was about 3"..... i have a 150G tank with about 30KG of mopani wood inside, i thought he could hide lol...
I just found a skeleton with a pleco head attached and the crayfish chomping on it!!!!!

Basically will this crayfish decimate all of my other fish and should I get rid of him...????

this is my stock list:
2X red oscars (3 years old fully grown... huge!!!)
1X Fire eel 30" long (fully grown 3 years old)
1X synodontis 8" long
2X pimelodius pictus cats 5"
1X Blue Acara 4"
1X Sturio Catfish 7"
1X Royal pleco 4"
1X common pleco 9"
1X lima shovelnose 4"
1X Spotted Gar 6"
1X black ghost knifefish 4"
 
Its going to try to eat anything it can until you get it out.
 
I too echo that the oscar's will get him, especially when he molts.

As for what fish will it take... the common pleco might endure. The eel, depending on how strong it is. Oscar's are in no danger.

The rest are fast food.
