blue lobsters are gorgeous! I haven't had any luck with keeping crustaceans though.. I always oogle at them when I'm at a pet store that has them, but I gave up on aquatic inverts a few years ago.

Oooo...sweet little guy!
I love lobsters. Always said that if I was given one, it would be a pet...even if it was meant as a meal. :D I can't eat lobster or crab - too rich.
Have fun with him!

Thanx peeps! He has already dug some tunnels under rocks and made some mounds for his climbing pleasure.

Re: Man I HATE Lobster
Is that a blue freshwater crayfish? My husband had one, and he was terribly entertaining, although very hard on the plants. He would actually climb a plant, and snip off each leaf and watch it float to the surface.. before he snipped off the next leaf.
He'd also make himself a den, and drag long strands of anachris into the den to make it JUST RIGHT.
Very entertaining critters, congrats!

I've had one of those before. Mine wasn't quite that big though, and my Oscar ate it.

As far as size, Im torn. I have read a lot of information with contridicting information. Some say 2-3 Inches, while others claim 1' is common.

Re: Man I HATE Lobster
I have done nothing different to my New World Cichlid tank. I just had to buy sinking pellets. Peeps tell me that I really dont need the sinkers, but my Cichlids clean up pretty damn well, so I dont want to chance it. We have a ViaAqua 750 on the tank as well....

Re: Man I HATE Lobster
Thats it Pat I demand an entire list of animals you have. I had no idea. Every other freaking day you pop up with some new critter. Why this bothers me I do not know bu tit does....Nice lobster by the way. I have been thinking of getting some sort of aquarium together. Can decide salt water of fresh. I guess icould do both. I want to get a mantis shrimp if i go salt. They are so evil. :devilish:

Re: Man I HATE Lobster
Crustaceans are funny my brothers has a 140 gal salt water set up and he bought a but load of little , red, and white crabs. He had one big one about the size of a quarter and the rest ranging from a dime to a pea and all the little ones ganged up on the big one and literally tore it apart. Sad as it was its nature. Funny part was one of the little pea sized one tried to steal its shell when he feast was done. Poor little guy had enough room in there for about 5 more lol.
