Tropical rock lobsters, or pearl lobsters, as they're better known, are one of the rarest and most expensive lobster varieties. The colorful crustaceans are so valuable that there have been international smuggling attempts of its larvae. Commercially bred pearl lobsters sell for about $50 per kilogram, while wild-caught pearl lobsters sell for $99 per kilogram. This makes pearl lobsters more than six times as expensive as Maine lobsters. | Business Insider

Pearl oysters have a lifecycle similar to other bivalve mollusks. They begin their life as larvae that drift in plankton for several weeks before settling down and attaching to a hard surface. Once the larvae have attached to a surface, they start to grow and form a shell. As they grow, pearl oysters start to secrete a substance called nacre, which forms a smooth, iridescent lining inside the shell. This is what ultimately produces the pearl.#pearls #pearllover #pearlgaga #oysters
