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.

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

Default 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
