Just wondering if anyone here is keeping a lobster they got from their local food market. Ive always thought of doing this. Would love to see your setups, stories, pros /cons, and advice! Thanks.
I had one years ago when I was into salt.I actually bought it for the purpose of providing bio waste for my filter system as I did not want to fool around with damsels that I would not wish to keep once the tank cycled.I cooked and ate the lobster after it served it's purpose.
Yes it was from the grocery store and I think it cost about twelve bucks.I did not use a chiller but I did not run a heater either.Was it one of the grocery store varients? Did you add a chiller to the tank or just keep at room temperature? If i kept it in the basement the winter temps ate 50s and summer low 60s. I have a small fridge that i was thinking of running filter through to keep water cool.

What did you feed it? Did you observe it eating? Did you take the rubber bands off the claws? How long did you have it while cycling your tank?
