Blue Lobster

[hhierl]

Any body keep these? I am thinking of putting one of these in my tank, 60 Gal hex or the 10 gal, but am not sure if they are to aggressive. If you do keep these what kind of tank mates do you have for it?

Well the blue lobster is not something I would keep in my tank. They are pretty aggressive and they will catch your fish and kill them with their claws. I would not suggest it.

I used to have a blue lobster named Ferdinand in a 10 gal, then a 30, with an assortment of gouramis and barbs, and he never bothered anyone! as long as the fish are fast enough, they should make it!! Though make sure to cover up ANY holes in the top of the aquarium! He climbed out one day and I found him crawling on the floor!

I have heard and seen this little guys in our creek and LFS but, in the LFS they said that it would probally.... if your fish were to breed they would eat the young I wouldn't suggest this either 8)

* *thumbsupsmiley*I have one in a 10g and he is great, I have him with neon's, I used to have him in my 50g but the barbs would pick on him when he would shed

hello i gess each has it's own persinalty i have a black gost fish they are closs to blind and have no scalls sensitive fish but my blue lobster lets him stay in the same log!!So if you feed the lobster i think they can be verry passive.

A blue lobster is more of a, lone specimen I'd say.
