Is this a good cray tank?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Also I was told they like water sprite, i planted a few stalks in my tank and have seen them picking at it a few times.

Dark how did you get the Peas to sink? I tried to feed em that but couldnt keep the peas down
 
Good news on the deal. :) I wouldn't worry about the hair algae. Mine graze on it sometimes and the smaller ones like using it to go glass walking. They'll probably get it trimmed down a bit for ya, free food. :)
Oh, it's not growing on anything. It's a big ball of hair. Looks like a green basketball with little dreadlocks across it. You're probably right about safety, though. I see snails crawling through it. They are shaped differently, though. I just imagine that if I put on a crayfish costume and tried to push my way through that ball, I'd die entangled in the fibers. I guess we'll see.

Peas sink if you remove the shells.
 
Total cost for me was about $23.50. I had a dream last night that they came. But in my dream they were giant red slipper lobsters and they were carrying berries that looked like albino honda tail lights, crystal clear with bright red yolk sacs. Sort of like a pomegranate seed, I guess.

They should arrive today. It's all my zen to not set up a tent on the porch and wait next to the mailbox...

wow, that;s vivid man. You ever been to a dream interpreter?
 
i think knifegill should be a writer. he's pretty good with details in everything he ever describes. i always feel like he paints a complete picture using just words
 
well i hope you get them. i have had crayfish for a while and mine will sometimes pick up a snail but never really eats them. i had my smallest cray in a 5 gallon and he is now my biggest because he got the most attention and food. he has had 3 snails as tank mates since day one over 8 months ago. i see him carrying them around sometimes but never eats them. he loves sinking shrimp pellets and cichlid pellets. i thought of breeding crays for food source for my snapper but i like them to much. but if i got some of those marbles that clone themselves that would be a whole different story. id prob end up with 20 in each tank. so id have to feed them to my other pets. i myself just started a huge mealworm colony for food for my cichlids and stuff. plan on selling some cheap too.

:ROFL: When I was a kid (like 9 years old) my mom trained me on how to pray away demons. Grew up waiting to be attacked by insane visages of terror at any second. You're not getting me anywhere near mysticism. Like a cat from a loud vacuum...

But that's nothing for a dream. I've had my mom hand me her uterus in a dream, and that's on the list of things I'm willing to share...

THEY'RE HERE!!! Asian mailman handed me THE BOX!!!!!
