im ,ooking for a bottom feeder for my tank, can a ocean caught lobster live in frshwater? i work at walmart (as a beer distributor) and i coukld have sworn i heard them talkin about the lobster water. and i have no idea how lobsters work, but yea is it possible?
 
dude touching a lobster from the ocean is SOOOOOO Illegal. U need a license just to touch ones that are LARGE enough to keep.
 
O trust me im fully aware lol. i was just wondering if a lobster can live in freshwater, cuz aqua scape is selling a "blue lobster" and i wasnt sure if it was for fresh or salt water. Im not gonna go rob a lobster pot or nething lol

prolly a crayfish. And u dont have to rob a lobster pot, ive seen plenty of spanish and asian people flippin rocks or using chicken as bait luring in crabs and lobsters illegally while i was fishin on the jetty. I dont care as long as they stay away from me and my lucky spot.
 
yea i wont be doin it like that, i was just wondering if hypothetically a lobster that is being sold for food at a store could live in freshwater

Prolly for a short time maybe in fresh, not for life or survival even.. i mean they can live in the fridge's vegetable section for a while too.

My dads a lobsterman too.
