Awesome 
The starfish is not so dumb as to stay in contact for too long.
Beautiful additions to the tank, and they know how to get along. "Just stay away!"

i just saw one for $119 in my LFS, it didnt glow green, but they keep some of their corals under 10000k (i dont know why) but i bet it would under 14000k or 20000k. They are awesome corals. Awesome tank Otty! _________  | |

They are a predator and anything that touches them they sting and start pulling towards their mouth. The shrimp will just be an expensive snack. I feed it a dime size piece of cocktail shrimp about every two weeks and it closes up on it and devourers it.
I think your LFS is pulling your chain!
Thanks for the complament! | |
