Dwarf Mexican Crayfish and Corys?

[newmag1659]

I’m thinking about adding a Dwarf Mexican Crayfish to my established 20 tall killifish and Cory tank. I’ve seen conflicting opinions on whether the crayfish will harass/eat the corys. I have 4 albino corys, 2 emerald.
Is this a feasible combination or should I just skip out on the crayfish? I don’t want to do anything to hurt my corys, I just got curious since a friend is breeding the crayfish.
Thanks!

Easy question to answer: never combine fish and crayfish.

While the dwarf is super tiny, I had thought about it too, since many sources say they're relatively fish and shrimp friendly, but seeing the tiny size in person, I feel the crayfish wouldn't compete well with cories for food and cories can be really in your face oblivious to things and may get nipped by the annoyed crayfish.


But really cool little crayfish! Get a little 5 gal for the crayfish, it's worth it! I mean, look at her little face, they're so cute
