WANTED: Micro brittle stars in Canada!

[TheFool]

Hey all, im willing to buy micro brittle stars (and some bristle worms) off of some fellow canadians (as i cant have stuff shipped from the u.s)

I want to populate my 3 gallon vase with these micro critters... so please, if you know anyone with micro brittle stars have em comment below!

Heres a couple of pics of the bowl!

If I could ship to you I would man that is one cool looking vase tank. Really words cannot begin to discribe how impressive that is. Do you mind telling us the set up you have there in total. I’m sure I’m not the only one that would like to hear about this little piece of ocean you have created.

Yeah definitely i have a full write up on nanoreef and kinda got lazy about making one here. I recently transfered it into a vase after tearing down my 2 gal cube (same rock same corals and same sand from the 5 gal I also tore down) see pics below

Its a very simple setup light, air bubbles for surface movement and flow and a heater (into a thermostat)
50-100% w.c per week for nutrient export and trace element renewal and bang youve got a jar reef!

Where are you located? Perhaps try a local forum/facebook group, or even just head to a local reef shop.

Ive tried! Lfs arent too willing and so far nobody claims to have any :/ best bet is to probably buy a ton of lice rock and hope for the best... Gonna ask this newer lfs if i can set up a trap in one of their refugiums
