mini brittle starfish

[newfly]

I would love to add biodiversity to my tank. I know ipsf (https://ipsf.com/ministars.html) sells them, but i just need a few , 2-3 is enough to start.

Anyone have any that willing to sell or give away?

I assume they would be OK in a bare bottom tank.

I've got a ton for you

Can I grab some too? I got a few from IPSF to see my tank but I haven’t seen any of them

When you come get the ogo tomorrow, you can have a handful of crushed coral to seed with them as well.

I have millions of these, always available. I have a PIF thread for them as well. For anyone in my neck of the woods (I’m in Walnut Creek).

I'm a newbie and was wondering what are the main pros and cons of these little starfish ?

 

[JVU]

Pros:
They are excellent scavengers (clean up crew)
They are reef safe- don’t harm corals/inverts/fish/etc, even when there are a lot
They are cool (subjective)

Cons:
They can grow to very large numbers, like I have. Not a huge con but can be a little creepy to have them hiding in every nook/cranny and waving their little arms in the water

Thanks, that is good to know. Maybe if I'm in Walnut creek, I'll take up your PIF offer some day!!!
