Meghan named this lobster Skyler and said it would give it to the local marine park, where there are three individuals of blue lobster and another individual golden lobster.

According to the researchers, the blue color of the blue lobster is due to a rare genetic variation. The proportion of lobsters with green color in nature is very rare.

Lobster has a maximum weight of 9kg. They often live in rocky beaches, coral reefs where there are many caves, coastal grooves. This is a species whose behavior is mainly concentrated in the bottom layer with a clean, mud-free substrate. They shelter in caves, less active during the day and actively find bait at night.

Lobster is omnivorous. In nature, they eat mainly animals such as fish, shrimps, crabs, spines, small crustaceans, molluscs and other plants such as moss.
