SOME JUVENILE SPINY LOBSTERS


a young spiny that shows adult type colors

from the colors & spots looks like a red spanish but it is an OZ red rock

NO COLORS YET HERE, 

guttaus ? perhaps ?

This one has color but eyes are big like a shrimp ?
Larval stage

Does not look much like a spiny lobster yet

at this point they are free floating like plankton

A close up of the one above

antennae are formed

the eyes are on stalks

the body is clear

very pretty
