How big and what species are these crayfish? Crayfish is a pretty widely used common name for a large array of species.

I assume you have what are comonly known as 'crawdads', if so I'm sure and arowana will make short work of them eventually no matter how big the tank. Just because it is a 300gal doesn't mean you can mix predator and prey and expect the prey to survive.

It may work for a short period of time. However, in due time, the crawfish will be lunch for your aro. dry.gif

I don't know much about arowanas, but even my little arrutas was beating up on mine for awhile.
