im thinking of starting a blue crayfish tank. it will be a 20 gallon long half water half land.this will be kind of an actual habitat. i will have a river type feature and a filter that i can make a waterfall out of on the start of the river. i will cycle the water of the tank so i can add something like white cloud minnows. the minnows will be an occasional snack for the crayfish. ill also keep some shrimp and snails in the water to keep it clean will these get eatin by the crayfish? i also need suggestions for plants. here's my list now. peacock fern, bamboo, and anubius. the land part will be sand probably or something like miracle grow organic or eco earth(for reptiles). what are some other half water half land animals that might do good in this setup if any? can anybody find a website or a post of a half water half land ecosystem type thing? would african dwarf frogs in the water and a half aquatic half land type frog work in this setup? maybe a pacman frog or pixie frog, and maybe some type of lizards like long tailed lizards or panther geckos or crocodile geckos. will lizards, frogs, shrimp, snails, and a crayfish live together peacefully? ill start this project in around a month when i move my bearded dragon to his larger setup, but im gonna plan everything first. thanks!
