Very nice Jason! Love the colors! What kind of lighting do you have that beauty under? It looks quite happy. You feeding him regularly?
 
Wow, gorgeous!
 
careful with those stars..I've heard stories about them :)

I had an outbreak earlier this year. Harlequin shrimp will knock them out pretty quickly and they are really cool to watch. That's all they eat though so just make sure you have a fellow reefer who can use them once you're finished with them. Sorry for the hijack - I noticed them in the picture as well : )

thanks, i have them under 8x54 ati 2blue special, 5 blue+, 1 fiji purple. I have only fed it once since ive had it but it catches food that floats by.
 
Beautiful Trachy bro! Love trachys!!!!

They are Asterina stars and eat SPS polyps and prefer Stylophora and Pocillopora but they love acros too. I wouldnt worry that much about it, just keep an eye on them and Just suck them out while doing your weekly/bi weekly water changes. I have a dominated sps tank and have never had a problem with them trying to eat my SPS. I just suck them out every week and a friend of mine just gave me his harlequin shrimp so i'm sure that little guy is happy as can be.
 
I've also had the asterinas eat Z&Ps. They won't bother them unless they are in rough shape, but sometimes they finish off polyps that would have otherwise survived IMO.
