Blue Crayfish/"Lobster" sniffing out algae wafer

At the beginning og the video I drop an algae wafer into the tank on the right side of the screen. See how long it takes for the electric blue crayfish/lobster to sniff the wafer out. And for what it's worth, this guy was already fed some crab pellets an hour or two before....

I bought mine at a local pet/fish store called PetLand, although I've seen them at many different stores here in BC, Canada.

will a blue lobster kill my blue gourami?

[colinsjunkbin]

As said before, a crayfish/lobster will try to eat any fish it can grab hold of. Cray's are best left in tank on their own in my experiences. If you have anything else in the tank with the cray, the cray will hide a lot of the time.

i've got 8 different gourami in my tank with my lobster and it doesnt do anything but hide. in my experiance as long as the gourami is bigger than the lobster it should be fine

I've always found the lobster/cray is far more adventurous when he's in a tank on his own.

@colinsjunkbin LOL! That's funny, 'cause that's where I got MY blue crayfish! It was a PetLand in Iowa, though. Yep, it's a crayfish. Lobsters have large, flat disk/shaped claws, and crayfish have long skinny ones.

@colinsjunkbin Where is this Petland? I live in Surrey, and it's almost impossible to find good fish stores.

[Ethen560]

@shutdownthefed try finding out if the fish is a bottem sleeper or not
