Default Lobster??????

Guys/gals! Anyone know about the safety of moving a lobster that has recently molted? I am suppose to pick up this little guy tomorrow, but I've been informed that he molted just last night. Neither the seller, nor I want to do anything to harm this little guy. So please can someone tells us what is the recommended time to move him from one set up to another!!!

Thanks folks

Once they are molted they are fine...its during a molt that they tend to be a little more ornery...

OK. Next question.. Do you guys think it is safe to have a lobster in a reef with fish that sleep in the rocks?
