my biggest mini brittle is 1'' across and a year or 2 old, i always take them out then they get over 1" so i cant really say how big they will get down the road. they are white and make awesome cleaners.

I am definitely looking for something to clean my substrate but I always thought in my tank I would starve a star pretty quickly. I have only 30lbs of sand. Is that enough for a star to feed on?

Course you are all welcome to come! Philly would you be so kind as to pm the location?
I have 1 tiny brittle star I have only seen once or twice, he was in a piece of rock, not in the sand.

Donno how you are gonna catch Mysis shrimp, but sure bring them along. (could always use some live Phyto as well hint hint)

My address is 775 Francis Ave. I'm in the basement suite which has a private entrance on the right hand side of the house (opposite from car port). I'll have a sign or something showing where the door is.

I'd definitely be interested however I won't have anything to trade/sell. Sounds like it's going to be a seller's market as their doesn't seem to be many people bringing stuff to sell....
