Blue Lobster.

[Otto_VonBacon]

My hammers blue cobalt lobster from liveaquaria had baby's with another lobster i had, obviously. Problem is, i was CERTAIN i had two females.

The suspected father died right before i noticed the babys, they are starting to grow now and getting more and more aggressive as days go by.

This is great though because i bought the blue lobster for 35 dollars minus the shipping it takes to ship live animals. So i got about 5-10 for the price of one.

There has to be at least 30 of the critters in total in there, what should i do with most of them?


(first thread here, nice place guys)

Here are some pictures, the blue crayfish is Dave, the female lobster...
Named her before i knew the sex.








There still little, hopefully their color develops soon.

You can tell the sex of a crayfish by looking underneath...

Well here, this place can explain it better than i can.

OMg they are soo cute! i would raise them all if i were you, just feed them well and they should grow quickly, im not sure but i would seperate them from the parents.

So far Dave hasn't hurt them, some even walk around her and whatnot.

She's not very aggressive at all

Pleco and Dave have some kind of odd bond...
