To the OP- you proposed putting an animal that people around here care about in a situation that would almost certainly kill it, and implied that you were aware of the danger and didn't really care. What if you went on a bird forum and asked, "What kind of parrot can I keep with my python, that won't scratch the python when he eats it?" Would you expect a positive response?

I hope you stick around, but please do show a little more respect for the animals we all love.

More on topic, most crayfish need to be in single species tanks; they are very dangerous to fish and amphibians, even individuals that are as large as the crayfish.

Most of the big salamanders that CKing mentioned (though I disagree with his assessment of them; I love my lesser sirens, and would keep other big paedomorphic salamanders if I could) will prey on any small enough crayfish. Hellbenders eat little else.

Crayfish are wonderful tank inhabitants, just not with salamanders.
