Crawfish with Goldfish In A Tank?

Question

So my family likes fishing, and my dad bought some crawfish. I was wondering if I could put them with my goldfish. Maybe just 1 or two. Would it be okay, or will the crawfish eat my goldfish? The goldfish are still babies (I think) and one of them is a pretty small feeder fish, and the other is fancy.

Answer 1

The crawfish will eat the goldfish.  I can guarantee this.  My sister once had a crawfish as a pet in a 10 gallon tank.  My father would feed it by buying a bunch of feeder fish and letting them live in the tank until the crawfish got them.  If the crawfish is a lot smaller than the fish you have, it probably won't be able to eat them right away, but as it grows it will definitely try.

Answer 2

paint little numbers on the fish and take bets on who goes first/second/third :)

Answer 3

if its a salt water cra(w)(Y)fish it will die

if its freshwater it probably wont

it is likely to eat the fish

also feeder should not be kept with fancys

i did some research and Americans call freshwater crustatiions crawfish and saltwater ones lobster

in New Zealand we call them both crayfish

so i am assuming you are from America

Answer 4

i souldnt recomend it. The only shrimp, lobsters whatever u could put in are little glass shrimp,or ghost shrimp. theyll get along with goldfish and dont think the goldfish will hurt them any.
