That Red Bali Starfish might be really hard to keep alive in a tank that size. I have one in my twenty gallon and I wonder if my 20 gallon is even big enough. How long have you had it? I hear if they are kept in a small tank they slowly starve to death

I hear they are difficult to direct feed too as no one really knows what they eat other than algae

I had never fed this star, but i have seen it lay on top of pods and some algae for long periods of time

hey you are doing clean reefing there's not even a layer of detritus on the sandbed or in the top 1/16th of it as a slight brown tint. are you turning over that bed really well

I havent touched the sand bed in months and hardly do water changes, i sometimes see my hermits, snails and pistol shrimp moving the sand...i dont want to stir the samd bed since i think it will release some bad gas
