![]() I received two of these beautiful creatures with a shipment without my ordering them. I cannot properly care for them as they are specific feeders. Any one that is experienced with these Harlequin Clown Shrimp; they are very healthy and active; please contact me at Red Coral I will give a great deal.

![]() OOOH too bad you weren't closer...I have a female and would love to add a male as they are really beautiful and peaceful. As long as they are fed properly they do very well!

![]() they only eat starfish....NOTHING else. You can't even coax them to consider anything else. I got mine as I had a horrible issue with Asterina Stars. I have 5 starfish in other tanks to use as leg donors to my shrimp. I feed about 1 leg every week or so...you just use a different starfish each time and by the time you get back to the first star again it has grown a good portion of it's leg back.....I know it sounds horrible BUT you make a commitment to them when you get them. I use chocolate chip stars and sand sifters. My harlequin sees the tongs coming with the leg and she will come out to get it off the tongs!

![]() What kind of starfish? I have over a million bristle stars and quite a few brittle stars in my tank. Including a few that might be zoo predators.

![]() I had one of these bad boys and it did not last very long. I have a ton of brittle stars and it did not seem to touch those. I had a bunch of those little white starfish and it ate all of those. To this day I have never seen a little white starfish in the tank again. Then I froze a starfish and was trying to feed it a leg at a time. I never saw it again and think it must have starved as it just did not like legs. The only time it would eat was if it had an entire starfish put in with it to munch on. EEWWWW.

![]() they eat linckia mainly best wat to feed them is keep the starfish separate and break a leg every week or so you need a few starfish so that they regrow as fast as they are removed
