    I just ordered 5 sand-sifting stars for my harlequins. They seemed fine. Of course they went straight into the freezer...

    Harlequins typically only feed off of live sea star's tube feet?

    OP I've read some of the reviews, they seem to offer a refund in some cases, but usually offer credit if something goes wrong.

    This will be the first time I'm going to attempt frozen. As soon as they come out hunting again we'll see... They just chowed down on a whole live one so it will be a week of two. Feeding whole live every couple of weeks is expensive.

    The harlequin I looked after wouldn't touch dead/frozen starfish. Good luck to you, hopefully yours will be different, though I doubt it will. Harlequins diets consist of the sea star's tube feet along with the flesh. When the star is dead, something about the tube feet is different.

    You got that right about expensive though haha
    Sorry for off topic.

    I order from reefs2go all the time. They are slow to respond and hard to get in touch with sometimes but I like their product. I've spent a thousand dollars with them easy. They have always taken good care of me. Even if the response time was slow.

    i saw a documentary recently where wild harlequins would only "take what they need" meaning they would remove one of the limbs of the star but leave her alive otherwise, giving it the opportunity to grow it back…..

    op sorry, never ordered from them can't give you feedback

    I've ordered from Reefs to Go many times. Mostly because I always have credit for dead stuff :(

    Anyone gotten any corals? They seem to have good deals and prices especially on Zoas, which are my favorite.

    I have. Watch for daily deals. I follow them on Facebook as well as subscribe to emails. I get great deals on corals. I have some beautiful pieces from them. My alveopora corals from them are huge now and beautiful.
