Red Lobster

Salt Water Red Lobster

The red lobster, also called the hairy reef lobster and the Hawaii Lobster, has elongated, flat appendages that are used mostly for show. Its body is a vivid purple and orange color with red spotting over it. These invertebrates are nocturnal but keep larger sleeping fish alone. These aquarium lobsters are suitable for reef aquariums but will eat some smaller shrimp and similar inhabitants.
