unless it smells food.??? What kind of food is it going to "smell". I thought it rummaged for food or ate algae. I already feed Phytoplankton, sparingly, for the clams, etc. Should I get some other kind of food for the star?
I got the Peppermint Shrimp to eat the Aptasia that are taking over my tank. I have not noticed any of them missing yet. Should I give it time, or should I be looking towards the fact that I got a "California Shrimp" instead of a Peppermint Shrimp?
Also, thinking of getting a Mandarin Goby for the tank. Good idea? I have heard several diff. opinioins from, "it will only live 6 mos.", to, "they are very easy to care for and will live a long time". Any advice? Will the Goby eat the little "bugs" that are crawling all over the sand, rocks, clams, etc... etc... etc...? I know the bugs are a good thing, just wondering if there is anything that will feed off them...
Thanks all...
