MY PET BLUE LOBSTER

[N2TORTS]

yup ..... no kidding! ... Here is "Leroy" ... he really is an incredible colbalt blue/purple I've raised him since about 1/2' in size and now well over 5" .....
His house is a groovy Dome tank built in the 60's and hangs from the ceiling~

That is neat, you are for sure unique!

You posted that dome tank once before, and I loved it. Very unique indeed. And so is Leroy. How long do they live, and are they compatable with .....anything...fish..frog...whatever? Or do they have to be alone.

Oo very cool!! The only lobsters I have seen in person are the poor little guys I used to see in grocery stores when I was little But a BLUE lobster- how awesome

Wow, he looks delicious.(kidding) Have you tried a black light on him? I wonder if he would fluoresce? Your "tank" is really unique. Is it a pain to maintain? Very cool.

These guys are very cool Not true lobsters, as they are freshwater, but actually crayfish. I love crayfish - i don't even know how many we have and my Marmorkrebs are cloning again...

( as he usally does!)......

Thanks ISA .....
He is a dare~devil at that ..... the tank hangs from the ceiling approx 7' and well ... several times he has gotten out ( there is a small access hole at the top of the fixture) jumped to the floor ...and I find him crawling around the house!....I figured he was using his plants as a ladder... so I buried them and well he digs um up ... So I think next Christmas, I'am getting him a parachute!
