My lobster had a bad molt last month, and was attacked by my other one...It stole the shell and ate it before my freshly molted one could...And here was the outcome...he lost a claw...and antennas. However he is still VERY fiesty...heres some pictures of him...please give me any input. Do you think the claw/antennas will grow back?

All limbs and extremities will regenerate with each new molt. The claws will never be a matching size again, but everything will start to grow back with each passing molt.

You may also want to separate the crayfish when they molt, as you can see, they do attack each other readily when molting. (If you do, remove the one that isn't molting, not the one that is.)

Eyes and other important things don't grow back but limps and claws would. Just that it will look different in size
