OVER population of BrittleStars!
Anyone know if there is anything that eats mini brittlestars but is relatively reef safe?
I have a serious overpopulation! This pic is the number I pulled off of one yellow finger leather coral! Anyone want some??!

Why do you need to get rid of them? They do a great job of cleaning up detritus.

Their populations rise and fall. I used to have lots of them as well. Its really no big deal if you have lots, but hey gifting them to other reefers is always nice too. I wish I was closer

Edit: doh, above poster is correct. Harlequin won't eat non-meaty stars like these. Last edited by Joem; 07-31-2009 at 02:46 AM.
