    I don't think this New Brunswick aquarium has ever been discussed on Zoochat before, but I came across it in a couple of articles about rare lobster mutations.


    First, this one about an orange lobster named Pinchy, obtained from a seafood restaurant in November 2015. There are photos and a video on the link.

    I found that one via the following article, about a "translucent" lobster named Lucky caught last month which the article suggests may be sent to the Huntsman Marine Science Centre also.
    "Russell said he might call the Huntsman Marine Science Centre aquarium in Saint Andrews to see if it can take Lucky. He thinks it will be a good place for Lucky, because it already has a variety of lobsters."
    Lucky the translucent lobster may be 1 in 100 million


    That article I found via one which has nothing to do with the centre but is about a lobster caught in New Brunswick with a Pepsi imprint on its claw.
