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!
