im restocking a tank and want to know if my corys can coexist whith a cobalt blue lobster

i would say no it all depends on the temper of the lobster but corries being so smal and lobsters being bottom feeders aswell the cories woudl most likley end up as food. i wouldnt do it.

thxmanbut my corys swim not just on the bottom but every where they arnt on the ground for long

I'm afraid your blue lobster will make every attempt to capture and eat your corys, day or night. I don't think the cory cats would do very well. Sorry.

could the live with cherry shrimp

I have a feeling any bottm dweller, including shrimp, would be a possible target. Blue lobsters are nasty little buggers, and very agressive eaters. You have to be careful what you put in with one.

i meant could the corys and shrimp coexist

Cody

keep a close eye on it...i dont think its worth the risk

Jim

I think the corys and shrimp would be fine. Corys are real peaceful

corys and shrimp will be fine...
a guy at my LFS told me that he had one of those lobsters in with some full grown barbs, and that at night the lobster would sit on a rocks and grab any fish that came by...so i wouldn't try it
