Anyone got any for sale? Or some you're trying to get rid of? Ik someone else is looking but I'm also looking and I'd like to get my hands on some of these dudes. Corals anonymous is also selling them but I'd be danged if I pay that much for like, 5.
 
I didn’t know there was a market for Asterina Starfish. In my systems, I suspect that they have a predator prey relationship with Red Planaria.
 
In addition to the overview from AI, I will add that red macro algae is a favorite diet as I find them wrapped up on stems of Bortacladia (Red Grapes), leaving iridescent orange where they feed.

I my 25 year mature tank, I think that Asterina Starfish eradicated Red Planaria.
 
Just curious, are you feeding them to something? If you have even one, they will be out of control (given the proper nutrients) in a few months lol.
I caved and bought 10 haha. And no, I'm not. I have them for the sake of having them, they even have their own tank. They are also very tradable. 𓇼

Trade able? I have many and if I can prove that they eat Red Planaria, I am sitting on a gold mine.
