Answer 1

Answer 2

For the Hermit crabs, you can go to a pet store and they will have pre packaged food for it.

The petstore I go to sells lobsters as pets, they also have prepackaged food for the lobster. Check your local markets and see what they have.

Answer 3

it is a crawdad most likely it looks like a mini lobster and lives in lakes and ponds and they eat ANYTHING however should not eat ANYTHING......lol

try nightcrawlers and other worms....

they love hamburgers BUT that will make you water SUPER cloudy!

Answer 4

For the tiny lobsters (aka. Crawdad or Crayfish) you should can feed them shrimp pellets, which you can purchase at a petstore. I have about 5 crawfish and I feed them little fish and shrimp pellets. The shrimp pellets seem to be the best thing to feed them.

For the hermit crabs I recommend that you give them an enviroment that is semi-arid. Fill a 10 gallon tank with about 1-2 inches of sand that should be a sufficient bedding. Then get them a little water bowl (not really a bowl but if you go to a petsmart they should know). The water can't be deep or they will drown. Then get a house for them to hide in, the shell they have is good cover but it is not a house.

Have fun with your crustaceans

Answer 5

Lobsters are omnivores and  cannibals,they eat  anything even each other. Feed them pelleted fish food and plant material.
