Here's a nice video[1] of somebody adopting a supermarket lobster and nurturing it back to health. clear demonstration to me that they are sentient and have personalities and mood (of a sort). after watching that, the grocery store lobsters are kinda heartbreaking, but i'm also a long time vegetarian so already predisposed to that.
i think aquarium keepers can be especially attuned to the personality types of marine animals. i've only been keeping freshwater fish and snails for under a year but they are super personable!
