I recieved a blue lobster as a gift about 4 days ago, and I have no idea how to feed it. The guy at petco said to feed it frozen blood worms or frozen brine shrimp, i bought both, but the only problem is i dont know how to get him to eat it. Shoule i let it thaw first? or what. aslo, ive been feeding it Sinking Wafers by hakari, will it eat these? Any help would greatly be appreciated.

I don't know much about lobsters/crayfish but from what I've heard they'll eat just about anything. This includes plants, fish pellets and wafers, flakes that have sunk to the bottom, frozen foods, etc.
I used to catch crabs with hot dog meat, not sure if it's a good idea to feed them that though.

Yea, they'll eat it all. thats thier job. thats also a problem if you have fish small enough for it to grab. not that they are good hunters but if opportunity knocks......
I'd say the best way to feed it would be TO my puffer

They'll eat all sorts of fish food, as well as veggies and pieces of fish or meat. As gonfishin said, they're scavengers, which means they're not picky
