Question
Hi, I'm not real sure that you answer questions on crustations, but I didn't see anyone who said they did so I decided to ask the most reliable person I saw. Anyway my question is quite simple; I had recently bought a Creyfish and am wondering if it could live with any other animal harmoniously, aside from another creyfish or differant species of crustation. My tank is a 10 gallon tank and its only one creyfish which is supposed to get about 10 inches when its full grown (and a few feeder fish for him to hunt). One other thing, would it make the creyfish happier if he had a spot in the tank like the top of a rock ,or something of that nature, where he wouldn't be totally submerged because it seems like he is trying to find a dryer place sometimes. Well I hope you can help me.

Answer
Hi, depending on how big your crustation is it is a good idea to put hom with other crustations, and maby pleco fish, in other words big sucker fish or really big other fish.Test to see if your creyfish wants a dry rock in the tank, maby he will like that.Creyfish also like live plants to play around with and other things like a small rock caves wich he may fit in.THANKS!
