Have you seen any around town?

I would definetly like to try and pair them up, its sound intersting.

dont take this the wrong way but really truely "healthy" starfish legs don't fall off. your sand bed has been stripped off all nutrients, your snails alone can probably manage the cleaning task.

You can bring livestock in from places other than your home town.

Ocean Aquatics has some pistol shrimp in I believe. They even have pairs you can buy.

Around town
 
Ya, but i like to have my stuff, "now"

But im a bit of a in the moment kind of guy.

:wink:

Bad hobby to pick then! This hobby teaches patience pretty well though, through the pocket book.

Aquaholic 02-16-2006 08:26 PM

Yup
 
This month alone i "lost" $160 on 2 boxfish (couldn't handle the current) and a torch coral ( improper acclimation/ too much light/ water variations /wrong flow)

I'm almost patience now

I figure a few more hundred dollars and ill be all patience -ed up

i've gone through so many fish/corals in my experience as well, but I've since learned from my mistakes. Learnin the hard way.

Think of the critters please people.
Research + Patience are KEY.
