    Hi,

    I intend to buy one or two, how much and where you buy. I had blue lobster catch from the wild, very active and eat live prawns alive ,very exciting. If no food they will eat plants.

    They are scavengers. Usually come out at night to dig the floor for food etc, you can feed them sinking pellets, small dead fishes. Avoid giving them prawn or shrimps, I heard they might spread disease as they are from the same family.

    Maybe you can place some hiding spots for it, flower pots, cups, driftwood. They would be very happy.

    Hey, I bought mine from Qian Hu for about $10. Went around to few farms and lfs to find, felt that QH ones seems nicer and healthier. I am planning to sell it, if you don't mind taking over its care. I can let it go cheap.

    I bought it think about 4 months. It is healthy and molt some time back. I been feeding it with lobster food granules and prawns. It is now about 8cm from head to tail.

    You can sms me at 97209566 to discuss more.
