The spotted lobster in the first picture would be a safer bet in my opinion. They grow much slower than the spiny lobster in the second pic. I believe they are a bit more docile than the spiny also, i know when i go lobstering in the keys every year we always find many many large spinys and they are pretty bold considering their size. In contrast, the spotted lobsters seem to be much smaller and would hang mostly in the back of caves (upside down like a cleaner shrimp would) and would take off as soon as a tickle stick touched them! I guess if you keep them fed and have all your corals glued down tight you might not have a problem, but as soon as they realize they can catch your fish, rest assured because they are opportunistic, they wont stop once they have started.
