EmilyB,

Yeah chocolate stars are monster machines at eating corals. Mine would eat almost anything. I found mine LOVES eating zoo's & xenia are the fav! I couldn't keep any Xenia's! It was like the star could smell them as soon as I put them in the tank and boggy over to eat them. This starfish ate the following:

Urchins, slugs, mushrooms, Xenia, birds nest, any Zoo's, polyps and any softies! Anything that doesn't sting it.

Stays away from my pagoda (to high up the rocks although its tried) & wont touch my frog spawn, but that’s it! Won’t eat anything that can sting the star it seems. Today before I left for work, I pulled the star off my green star polyps! NOoOOOOO!!!!

So hope that helps. Let the force be with yeah!
