Yep I had to pay a very hefty price on mine.. About 50$!! He is my favorite fish I have ever bought though. The day after I went to my local Petco and they sold the same size for 11$

Umm yes but if you have proper hiding places he will be fine. I have mine with an African cichlid called melanochromis auratus, a common pleco, and a butterfly cichlid. They haven't bothered him so I really doubt yours will. But I would be careful of the lobster eating your barb lol. They will try but probably not succeed because of speed, and overall clumsiness.

The rosy reds are feeders anyway.

He looks great but not an electric blue lobster if that's what you thought. I will get a pic in a few secs

Here... But yours looks very nice. I love the colors in between his claws. You
Might be able to hand feed if you want. I've been trying but it's hard.

If he's not what is he.

I used to know the name, I think it's a common yabby. Google cherax destructor that is the scientific name for it

 

[Forester]
