the blue lobster will eat any fish it can catch.

clown loaches are masters at finding places to hide though, so check everywhere.

:iagree:

If the loaches are juvies I wouldn't put it past the "lobster"

They were just hiding extremely well, you were right. But one is still missing.

He has expensive taste. At $9 each, I would rather him eat the danios.

Be careful, you're likely to be buying expensive dinners for your "crayfish". The common crayfish sold under "Electric Blue Lobster" is Procambarus alleni, highly aggressive with a big taste for meat matter. It's an excellent hunter, and best kept alone or with large tankmates. And you'll never see remains unless you catch the crayfish in the act of eating something it's caught, they'll eat everything (bones, organs, etc).

well fish eat fish BUT LOBSTERS WILL EAT ANYTHING THEY CAN CATCH

all it takes is for the others to see one get eaten, and they'll hide for ever.
