Killing Asterina stars

[asylumdown]

yah, i looked in to those, but this is a tiny little 5 gallon pico tank that I use to quarantine corals, I empty it out when I'm not using it, so I don't really want to invest in an animal that I would then need to care for/do something with. There's nothing in my big tank to feed a harlequin shrimp and there's not enough of the stars in the QT tank to justify buying one.

I'm more wondering if there's something chemical that I can do as a dip, as I'm trying to avoid this from becoming an ongoing problem that requires biological control. I will sterilize the QT tank when I'm done, I just want to make sure there's none on the coral.

have you tired revive or coral rx?

Bring the acan rock to me ill cut the rock away for you with my diamond blade

I would dip the whole rock in concentrated lemon juice, making sure that the coral doesn't get touched by that. It will literally burn every possible hitch hiker within secs!

Asterinas are reasonably harmless .. flatworms on the other hand yeah I could see you not wanting them..
