Blue lobster

The Blue Lobster is a freshwater crayfish prized for its eye-catching blue colour and unique appearance. With its strong claws, textured body and curious behaviour, it quickly becomes one of the most noticeable inhabitants of an aquarium.

It is an active bottom-dweller that enjoys exploring caves, rocks, driftwood and other hiding spaces. Providing plenty of shelters allows it to establish its own territory and feel secure.

Despite its name, this is a freshwater crayfish rather than a true marine lobster.
