What To Feed Blue Spiny Lobster With?

[DrJekyl_MrHyde]

Hi, i just brought a baby blue spiny lobster recently about 2 inch , the one with long white feelers.I would like to ask is it a scavenger? What does it eat ?

And what can i feed it with ....? How big can it grow up to in captivity?

Can anyone who has experience with keeping lobsters let me know what is its feeding habits? And will it eat or disturb my soft corals...?

Thanks a lot!!!

i had one of these . never fed it specifically . let it find its own food. kept for abt 3 months happily until one morning wake up hear clicking sound from my tank. turn on the lights and see half of it sticking out the powerhead intake. My sicce nova has a high casualty rate man. 2 blennies 1 lobster. i selling it cheap coz got bad karma.

i kept mine for about 6 months...

too bad i kept it with a panther grouper which grew faster than it did

kept the intact shells everytime it moulted,

its cool to see how they grow with each moult!!

yah no need to feed.

just be careful because as it grows bigger, may have tendency to knock rocks over. Last thing u want is to wake up to a pool of water in yr living rm. It happened to my marine tank in school once.

Trivial.... lobsters produce a lot of urea. ie. ammonia.
