I've found that my pet lobster (Thadeus) often enjoys pieces of shredded cheddar with bacon crumbled. Almost every time I put that in his tank, its gone with in five minutes. I was told however, that lobsters are highly allergic to any kind of nut, so I strongly go against sloping some peanuts in your pets tank.

lobster are bottom feeders, they eat the slime and the dirt in the bottom of the tank, but you can also put small fish in the tank and the lobster will eat those.
