Crustaceans for cichlids?

Question

Are there any crusteaceans that you can find at petstores to put in with cichlids. Like bamboo shrimp

Answer 1

I would say probably a crayfish

Answer 2

Whatever you decide on, consider the creature.  Like the guy who suggested fiddler crabs.  I have four crabs in a seperate tank.  They need ways to reach the surface for air and flat areas to dry out occassionally so you probably can't fill up your tank to the rim like most people do.  Just research your options and remember that cichlids are very dominant and territorial.

Answer 3

try fiddler crabs there cheap, or mabye you could get some crayfish, there aggressive, hardy, and they can protect themeselves against pretty big fish but cant kill fish that dont fit in there pincher
