hello everyone i have a 2 crays in my tank and one of them has behavior isusues..... attacking other cray, killed 2 fish, very destructive and i was wondering if there is a way to stop it or should i just leave well enough alone thanks 4 da :help:
 
Those aren't behavior "issues", that's their natural behavior. Crays really shouldn't be kept with fish unless you're planning on losing some fish.
 
crays will hunt and eat fish when ever they can. i have 2 breeding pair and when they were younge 3" the female used to batter the male. once they reached sexual maturity all calmed down and now they even share the same cave with no issues.
 
ok thanks theyre just minnows so i dont REALLY mind but if he goes after my pleco hes done for
