In the Beginning...If you have been looking for a unique gift giving idea that will fit any occasion and is perfect for the person who has everything, Lobster Gram is the right gift source for you! Sending live Maine lobsters -- Whoever thought of such a crazy idea? How are Lobster Gram lobsters packaged? Our lobsters are packed in a Styrofoam cooler with frozen gel packs to keep them cold, thirsty pads to keep them moist, bubble wrap to prevent too much shifting, and the whole thing goes in a corrugated box. How long do Lobster Gram lobsters stay alive? Lobsters can live a maximum of 36 hours outside of water. They do this by storing up the salty seawater in their gills, which is what they 'breath'. Their ideal temperature is between 40 and 50 degrees, which is why we use the ice gel packs in the cooler.
