Ok, 
. Something new everyday! I tell you guys... my FW tanks have NEVER been this entertaining. Especially considering 75% of the daily finds are just from rocks!
Thanks so much,
Steph

Just be aware...asternia stars are known to munch on zoanthids. I had them in my tanks for four years, then all of a sudden they started on my spiderman zoas...caught them red handed! I purchased a pair of harlequin shrimp the next day!

I have heard of that but I have also heard it is a red species of asterinas that eat zoanthids. Also if you are ever thinking of buying a harlequin, keep in mind that if your tank isn't that large and doesn't have a significant population of asterinas, the shrimp will blast through them and you will end up having to buy more starfish to keep it alive. VERY beautiful shrimp though
