I am selling my spiny blue lobster.
Lobster is 2" not including the antennas.

Pick up only (10075)
Paypal to hold
$20 firm

Very cool lobster. Almost always visible. Often walks around my tank.

Coral safe, but it will go after smaller inverts (or so I'm told, I've had no problems).

Lobster is in right side tank (With the breeding clowns)
The Pink Palys (AOG) are not for sale....but I will have a few frags shortly (maybe 2-3 months max)
Im not sure on tank requirements, but apparently they can grow to 12"-14", so obviously a nano will not work for ever...but that is a long time from now (He went from .5" to 2" in about 6 months).

Here is what Liveaquaria.com says about them:
"Panulirus vesicolor is known by many names using a combination of the adjectives, "blue", "spiny", and"painted"; for instance, Painted Spiny Lobster or Spiny Blue Lobster. The Blue Spiny Lobster or Painted Crayfish, has distinctive markings of azure blue stripes on its legs. The carapace is greenish-blue, and the dorsal surface is darker blue with a reticulated pattern. The tail fin is also blue. The abdominal segments have white bands and the antennae is very long. It lacks the large claws found on most other lobsters. It is peaceful and multiple specimens may be kept in a large tank. It generally will not bother other inhabitants of the aquarium, except for sessile or other bottom dwelling animals. Live rock with multiple crevices and hiding places would provide a good environment. It may be shy when first introduced, but once acclimated, will be more visible.
It is capable of making a sound that is very similar to a cicada (locust). It may perform a dance-like maneuver, whipping its long, split white antennae as it moves about the tank.
It will eat most all types of meaty foods that are placed in the aquarium. It is sensitive to high levels of copper-based medications. It is extremely difficult to breed in an aquarium."
