ok im trying to decide between getting a pair of dwarf cajun crayfish plus an extra or a CPO. im just wondering which you would personally get and why.
 
Depends on the color scheme of my tank. If I have a lot of red fish, I wouldnt get a CPO...too much clashing. It also depends on how blue the dwarf cajun crays are that I'm buying. I only really like the bluer strains, so if it is between a brownish one or a CPO, go with the more colorful. I'm actually making the same decisions. I want to make very sure that peacock gudgeons wouldnt bother or eat the crays before I decide to get them though.
 
hmmm any idea where to get the bluer strains? ive heard they all have blue in their genes and when they mate youll get around 2 with thd blue gene. i wonder if the dwarf cajun would be easy to sale. i might end up getting a pair of CPO's if i can get the money
 
i was wondering about cajuns myself. I have ..7 allenis that are all blue. And i think i'm getting a CPO next since i love their bright orange. I think it would work well with all the greens in the tank and whatever color gravel i'm choosing, the orange will definitely pop. That being said, i saw some beautiful cajuns too.

have u seen blue marmokrebs? Those are the self cloning ones. I have a few of those too. They're a mix between brown and blue and since mine are all so small ,i can't see any blue yet. Are you buying from aquabid? if you're interested in marmokrebs, i can maybe pick up some for u at in my area. But i've never shipped them before so...they were $10 each.
 
I asked some other friends who also have crays and they said they've housed them together before and nothing happened. Lucky i guess..=/ how definite is it that allenis will eat them
