I have 2 crayfish in my tank with an uncountable number of cherry shrimp. I've never seen the crays bother the shrimp. In fact, sometimes the shrimp climb on the crayfish. The crayfish are Procambarus alleni's.

I keep my cpo's and schufeldti with shrimp.

I just picked up a 4 ghost shrimp yesterday. Would they be ok in a tank with my marbles cray? There are hundreds of baby crays in there as well.
