Harlequin Shrimp - eats Asterinas

[Bill S]

These are so very cool. I have 3, and they've managed to do their work. My thousands of starts are nearly gone. I snagged one and got it into the fuge - so it SHOULD be available. Eats Asternias with a passion. I've had it for about 3 or 4 months. How about $20? Remember folks, their SOLE diet is starfish feet...

they consume the whole starfish not just the feet we had a pair for a few years we feed them chocolate chip stars

aw manI have been wanting harliquins since I got into the hobby. This really makes me wish I had a tank up and running right now.

[Jeff]

i'll take it bill, i won't be able to get it till later tonight if that's ok?

my harlequin has more character than the rest of my tank combined. its amazing watching him eat something a few hundred times bigger than his own weight. he eats the stars a leg at a time and feeds it to keep it alive while he eats it.

[Bill S]

Jeff - no hurry, it's yours. Call me first - 663.8079 - so I can make sure it's still in the fuge...

Yes, Tony, they are AMAZING critters. I'd like to maintain just ONE, and right now I have 3. I can't believe how well they got the stars under control.

The biggest issue is CATCHNING IT. This one I managed to snag with some luck, and by creating a few new SPS frags.

throw a chocolate chip in there, they will be on it like white on rice

[Jeff]

thanks bill, the shrimp is cleaning it's self in a little crevice of a rock and my boy loves it.

[Bill S]

They are just soooo cool! Hope he/she does well.
