The thought of lobster reminds me of when my dog ate a cobalt blue lobster that crawled out of a FW nano. lol.

In anycase, it's your's Alvin. BTW, I still have those frags you wanted.

If you decide to pass on the shrimp/lobster/mantis? , House is next in line.

 

[Tonyscoots84]

i wouldnt kill em they look so cute. and to actually watch them grow and become big lobsters that would be cool. if setup permits.

 

[noodleman]

[Cloud1921]

I think they look like baby mantis shrimp, but I could be wrong.

 

[DevIouS]

Don't think you'll see the pinchers on a Mantis....

It might be a Pistol Shrimp, not sure.

 

[Cloud1921]

Not really sure if its a pistol either.
Both claws are relatively the same size.
The tail also seems large and wide like a mantis or lobster.
