Silver arow w/blue lobster

[RedtailBarracuda]

Would a 7 in. silver aro be fine with a blue lobster/crayfish?

I have the lobster and arow in separate tanks but want to make space in my room. the tank is almost 2 feet deep.

Blue cherax(Lobster)=FOOD.With the mouth an arowana has i would say this is a bad idea!!

I think that the lobster could also damage the arowana if it caught it.

I have several crayfish in with my 22" aro...No problems at all. As long as the crays larger than a mouthful the aro will ignore it and the cray will never be able to get a hold of the aro to cause any damage. This aro, by the way, has had crayfish in its various tanks for two years now. Started out at 6"

how big is ur blue cray? i have my jar - pushing 15", and 2 of my blue cray - about 4" in length, living together in my 125g. they're doing just fine. the jar doesn't really look @ the blue cray at all, and the blue crays stay in their cave most of the time, they come out when it's feeding time.
but it's a risk that u have to take, and remember to provide safe caves or hiding places for ur crays
o, and don't worry about the cray doing damage to ur aro. the most they can do is to cut ur aro's tail a little bit. except if ur cray is about 6", which they're able to grow to, and ur aro is 7"...the chances for the cray to kill ur aro is still small even then, and the aro wouldn't be messing w/the cray for sure
