Aside from water quality, I have found they do better at lower temps (~22 C). Mine are in a 30 long with hundreds of shrimp and snails. The snails are great for cleanup and algae control, but the shrimp move and breed much faster, quite a lot of competition for food for the little ones. If I were starting the tank out fresh I'd leave out the shrimp.
It's also very difficult to spot baby crayfish among hundreds of baby shrimp.

Sorry, my friend. No experience with them.
