Crayfish?

[Hutton]

how long would a cray fish last in SW? i am curious to see what my smithii would do if i put one in.

that might be a little big for a lil smithii...BUT, Ive had them last a few days in my tanks at 1.026 before...

why dont you try some ghost shrimp instead

My wennerae AND Peacock went crazy for some ghost shrimp a couple days ago. My peacock went CRAZY when she found a big one in her tank! I have never seen anything like it!

Ya I know, my male peacock crapped himself when we saw a 3/4 inch ghost shrimp, he sprinted over to it and gave it one good whack which sent little shrimp bits everywhere.

how long would ghost shrimp last if i didnt aclimate them?

I drop FW ghosts into a "brackish" feeder tank at 1.021, and they have lasted over five days thus far with very few casualities..
