Daphnia are People Too.
Bad. Its likely the cray will attack the betta at some point, especially since bettas are not very fast swimmers.

Maybe a marbled cray or a CPO

I thought crayfish were pretty cool when I saw them. Had them in a semi-agg 50g before I converted to cichlids. Bought 3 for like $2. After a few days I started finding dead fish that were chopped in half lol Betta's have longer fins too so I don't think that would be a good idea. They grow pretty fast as well. I ended up throwing that one in the pond behind my neighbors house.
I had 3 in a 10g with snails and shrimp. One killed the other 2 and is growing pretty fast now.
