Starfish

Haha! I see! So you have never had a triggerfish?

 

wait wait wait... what is so wrong about the regular sandsifters?

 

I had a green sandsifting sea star when I first got my tank, it ATE all my polpys and my sandsifing goby.

 

Green bristle star no good with fish. at night it climbs up onto the tallest rock and dangles all but one hand over the edge, when it feels something is under it, drop it goes and for the next 8 hours till it gets light again, MUNCH MUNCH MUNCH. during the light it hides. I thought it was cool because it moved around quickly, found out it could dissapear in 30sec down the only dark crevise in my tank.

 

Heck no!!

 

People claim that the starfish will decimate your sand fauna so if you're running a deep sand bed, it's not a good thing. Some folks also claim that they die once they run out of food which they claim will happen in a small tank.

 

this is shocking. i have a fiji sand sifter in a 20 long and a regular in a 15, ive never had a problem before. im going to keep my eyes on that little bugger.

 

wow...that's my philosophy too (lazyman), although i have been known to keep some mysis in the freezer

 

Me too but mine have freezer burn from being in there for so long

 

mmmmmmm....old mysis popsicles!
