I've seen my crays try to eat small MTS... but IMO, if there's an easier to get food source, they're go for that.

Re: do crayfish eat snails?
last week thread, but yes crays will eat everything they can, I made the mistake putting in two mables in my snail farm.... week later all the snails are dead... Just recently my biggest cray murdered and ate half the body of the 2nd biggest before I noticed...
