![]() I have a Blue Lobster I think he is pretty cool but he is starting to get bigger should I be worried? He doesn't knock things over and he's lots of fun to watch crusing around the tank. Any thoughts?

![]() I've heard they get large and destructive. They may also try to eat your fish, but I've never owned one.

![]() I heard that they get big also. I was gonna get one a few years ago, but I saw a pic of a fellow reefers 4" Red Sea purple lobster holding a 1" damsel in it's claws and that was enough lobster for me

![]() A fellow reefer 'loaned' me an Orange/Purple lobster for about six months - great character, tended to keep quiet during the day. Lobster was about 4" to 5" long. However, it did manage to make a couple of chromis disappear (nothing else in the tank other than a few snails, hermits, and corals). Keep an eye on the lobster, but don't jump to get rid of it unless you are sure it is a problem... they are a nice addition to a tank.
