Can Brazos Dwarf Crayfish live with Pagoda / Spiky Snail?
Caution — with care
Why
- Almost no shared temperature: Brazos Dwarf Crayfish wants 65–75°F and Pagoda / Spiky Snail wants 75–82°F, so only 75°F suits both — too fine a margin to actually hold.
Sweet spot: both do well at 75–75°F and pH 7–8 — aim there.
