Future breeding project

I think I'm going to give up snakes and start breeding lobsters. Check out this calico lobster. Or maybe I don't have to give up snakes just yet. In a few years I can see whatsome GQ IJ blood will do for him.

These are full-size lobsters. Calicos are estimated to occur in 1 in 30 million individuals in the wild. Check out the story:

I would imagine for these lobsters you probably need a chiller since they live in cold water, but I'm not 100% sure. You could also probably do spiny lobsters which are usually tropical I think. Lobsters get pretty big though so you'd need a huge aquarium. You could probably get some smaller decapods though... shrimp and crayfish and stuff.
