Well, this is a very opinionated statement. My son had two for
pets in
a "Crawdad only" tank. It was very rewarding to watch them grow,
molt,
and eventually spawn. He sold the juvies back to the pet store.

"Cichlids don't make good pets" makes about as much sense. Try
putting
a Jack Dempsy into planted neon tetra tank. Fish salad anyone?

Sorry I offended you, your right it is opinionated. And I was
correct. But
I really only meant if there were other fish in the tank, that is why
I
asked if it had other animals. If it is a crawfish only tank then
there
would be no problems. But if there are small fish they would be
caught and
killed.


Not offended, no problemo. I was probably more set off by the use of
the word "good" more than anything else. In my opinion, "good" and
"bad" are the most improperly used words in our language. Case in
point; you meant to say a crawfish isn't an appropriate companion for
fish, it will eat them. This is very true. That's why we ended up with
a crawdad only tank! The crawdad wasn't being bad, however. He was
just eating.
