purple lobster

[vsecret]

i have been wanting a purple lobster since i saw one on here. I have 2 clowns, 3 green chromis, 1 royal gramma, and im getting this week a small blue hippo tang. I have a 55g, i know that its small for a tang but im getting it small and ill be upgrading to a larger tank before he grows too big, so no worries about the tang. But has anyone had one of the lobsters? I live in Maine so i know all about Maine lobsters but thats about it.
any thoughts?

I had one, they hide nearly all day and come out to wander around at ngiht, at least mine did. Id spot feed mine so it wont bother any of the fish too much.

i have a purple lobster. he hides all the time the only time i see him is when he is hungry. i feed the tank and if he wants food he comes out so i know to feed him as well. why i call it a him i dont know. other then that i love mine but i thought he was dead under my rock for so long cuz i never see him. he never bothers anything else in my tank.
