green brittle

I have bunch of things coming out of my LR. After explaining it at my LFS they thought they were serpent stars that live in the rock. They also mentioned that they were not a problem? What are your thoughts? Do I need to be concerned?

I have had my green brittle starfish since Dec 2006. I bought him the size of a quarter, for my son for Christmas. He is now about 1 1/2 feet in length and I have to get rid of him because he likes to eat my fish. I hand feed him every night, either big krill or silversides. As long as I do...

I want to get a bunch of sand shifters to clean up my detrious that's buliding up and not making my sand pretty anymore. Nassarius snails I hear are good as well as serpant stars and cucumbers. What would be a good combination of sand shifters and what kind of sand shifters are there? Like how...

Throughout my reef tank experience, I always bought the 'standard' fish. Yellow tangs, Perc's...etc. This time, I"m thinking of going small fish...gobies, chromis... Thing is that I've got a 90 gallon tank, so, it'd be alot of smaller fish. Did anyone go this route? Thinking, perhaps one...

I just notice in my tank a spiny long grey worm looking thing wedged in one of my rocks?????? ALSO i found a star fish never before seen to me. A small clear starfish it looks like red striped (or spots) around the legs? I wish i could include a picture but I'm hoping this description will work...

What do yall think about a star fish in a FO?

Is this brittle star safe for my little fish http://reefscavengers.com/orangebrittle.html thanks

Hello everybody, I have a 150 gallon reef tank that has been setup 2-3 months. Recently fish have started to disappear. First a couple chromis disappeared. A few weeks later we got 2 clownfish and a royal gamma. First one of the clowns vanished, a couple days later the other one was suddenly...

I need to get a better clean up crew but I'm not sure what to get. I have snails right now. Small narissus type and two turbo snails. I have a 150 gallon tank. I was thinking about some crabs, but I had blue hermit crabs and they messed with my corals. I also like the brittle stars, and cucumbers?

Hi I started a 10-gal nano tank and I am the proud owner of a few hermit crabs a peppermint shrimp and a small anemome but I noticed something on my live rock..... it looks like little tentacles comming out of the rocks they have small (what looks like) green bands on them can anyone tell me...

ok 1 by 1 my fish vanish. i put in a copper banded and a pearlscale not too long ago. the copperband vanishes within 3 days.....pearlscale 2 weeks later....yes its possible they dies and fell behind the rocks but i dont think so. anyone have any ideas? all that i have in the tank is LR and...

So my cycle should be done in about 1 week and I'll need a clean up crew for my 65g. Any recomendations? What critters should i stay away from? So what's a good combination? -Deuter:read:

How hard are sea stars to take care of? What's an 'easy' one to have? the Local LFS has a chocolate chip(I think that's right) one, if i'm not mistaken, they've had this little guy for a few weeks, so he's definitely hardy. . .do they need anything special? Still trying to find the right...

Hey there! My name is Heather and I'm from Central Ohio (anyone else from Ohio here) I've always wanted a saltwater set up and I've finally taken my first steps!! I bought a 55 gallon tank with a few fish from someone here in town and moved it to my house. I got rid of the 3 fish that came...

I thought I saw on a program once that pistols eat starfish. Does anyone know if I am remembering correctly? I want one but I dont want my green brittle getting eaten. The info I have found doesn't mention it. Or was it the Harlequin shrimp?

I have a pretty good sized brittle star in my 29G and he has gone on a feather duster eating rampage:angry: ...he got ahold of 1 that had come out of his tube last week and it took him a day to eat it. (I had 4 good size feather dusters) I wasnt happy about it but I was okay with it at first...

I've got a 30g 175w MH, 2x24w CF, SeaClone 150 skimmer, Rena XP1 canister filter Livestock: 2 saddleback clowns, green brittle star, blue legged hermits, turbo and nass. snails, colt leather, toadstool leather, green polyps, assorted zoo's, bubble coral, and xenia I've had this set up for a...

Ive had a few fish/shrimp in my fishkeeping life which have been apparently healthy, eating, etc, and have mysteriously disappeared from the tank with no evidence or found body whatsoever. I am talking, out swimming around eating one night, and no body the next day (I don't keep very heavy...

Well I think that I've had some of my clean up crew die off and I'm in need of some additions. Right now I have some blue legged hermits, nass. snails? (they bury themselves and have a long trunk thing), and a few bumblebee snails. I think i'm going to add some more hermits, and was wondering...
