Well I finally got them!!! :D Here are pics of my latest loves. They are in the 6gal JBJ LPS nano that I am currently stocking. The only corals that are in there are some GSP, and a green bubble. Tomorrow a neon green torch, pink tipped hammer, and purple and green galaxea arrive. :D
Just be happy you're not the poor chocolate chip starfish in the pics!

that shrimp is awesome and so are the pics. One question though, how do you get the pictures to look so proffesional. Cant wait to see the tank with the corals.

Yep, the ugly brown one is Diego and the pretty blue one is Krusty...lol. They are BOTH gorgeous! Yep, I actually watched them eat! :cry Didn't think I would be able to but they are very peaceful about it, no chunks of starfish missing or anything.

Thanks! We've got a decent camera and photoshop :innocent All I do is crop and take out the blue though...no color editing. In all honesty my 2 megapixel did a fantastic job too.

I had a question, how often do you feed the shrimp a starfish? :unsure

Im planning on once a week too. Diego had a very healthy pair so I figure Ill go with what works. I do plan on mixing up the kind of stars I feed though.
BTW- I got them at FinAddict...they rock! I thought I was going to have to order them but when we went today they actually already had a pair so I was in seventh heaven!
