basically harleys do not move when they have food they sit on their starfish and eat it untill its gone , theres cases of harleys feeding their stars to keep them alive , once the star is gone they sit and chill if more food doesnt come around they then start to wander.

harleys use sent to find their prey and can sense stars in your sump , they are also very crafty and good thinkers they problem solve to get to what they want.


if you want them to not wander keep them well fed.


youll love them buddy very hardy and food being their biggest concern.

also wrasses tend to not pick on harleys same with other predators , its believed harleys take in their preys poison or at the very least toxins so taste bad.
