So after my fahaka is a lil bigger I plan on turning my 50 gallon into a crayfish breeding tank... would crayfish be a good staple food.? Also going to feed shrimp, muscles, and lots of snails thanks everyone

Yes crayfish are a good crunchy food for fahaka hunting
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Suggestion- try marmokrebs or marbled crayfish, you can start breeding with just 1. They reproduce by cloning, cool little critters. Can find them on eBay or aquabid.

You don't mean breeding them in the same tank with the fahaka, do you?
