Crayfish eat shrimp?

[Newbie Breeder]

I'm looking to set up another tank and I was wondering if it's safe to house crayfish with shrimp?

The shrimp would have to be injured, sick, or dead for a crayfish to get 'em. A crayfish will eat anything they can catch.. But they're not that quick.

Given the opportunity, the crayfish will eat the shrimp. I wouldn't mix them.

 

[Lepisosteus platyrhincus]

Not a good mix. the cray WILL eat the shrimp.

My marbled cray loves to eat ghost shrimp..picked off a few cherry shrimp before i separated them. So not a good mix.

No it is not safe to house them together..

Crayfish will eat other crayfish, better kept alone or with larger fish that won't eat them
