    My Reedfish might attack them though.

    Yeah that's an issue you will definitely face ... I'm hoping to see them survive and then when I add amanos in they get left alone

    I've had them in the shrimp and crab tank while I tore down the cube and they were fine together. Even eating together and taking shrimps on pony rides. The crabs are more likely to harm shrimp (they too slow anyway) than the lobsters. Again though, I have the Mexican dwarf crayfish and they are the exact opposite of the other lobster's available in the pet trade.

    The only fish that causes them troubles is the apisto but they just put their claws out and he retreats. Amanos don't have claws so that's why I'm worried about them
