Temperature range for Dwarf Crayfish?

[Neonshrimp]

I can't seem to find the profile on Dwarf Crayfish in the Shrimp Variety page anymore and need to know the temperature range they are best kept in. The temperature has just turned warm in CA and will remain so for the next few days so I just want to know if I need to cool the temperature for them or not.

Thanks.

Don't worry about temperature if you are talking about the cajun dwarf crays. They can take temperature extremes just like they do in their native habitats.

Thanks Mustafa, yes they are cajan dwarf crays. I will just leave them alone then.

I kept mine at 78 and they seemsed to breed much better at warm temps than cold.

I will keep this in mind when I get a bigger tank for them to breed in, thanks.

I am trying to keep them in my discus tank which is in the 84F - 86F range. They seemed to be doing well for awhile, then they started to die off. Of the original ten I put in the tank, there are two left.
Anyone have experience with them at these temperatures?

...but after reading some of the posts, I'm wondering if it was the Flourish Excel that I've been fertilizing my plants with that did them in.
I started a new tank for the dwarf crays last week: this week three of the females are carrying eggs!
