Chocolate sea star

[karlaramey]

Hello! Does anyone have experience with the chocolate sea star? I just got one today for my 32. I have read they are not meant for a 32 long term? Also. Are there any quirks about them I should know about ? How to feed them (I just ordered a 24 inch tong). How often. How to keep them hardy (if needed?). Any information on them greatly appreciated. Thanks much !

I think many people buy those for food for shrimp.

Duly noted.

Helpful is when you research a purchase first right?

Chocolate stars may graze on corals, sponges and gorgonian. Ideally an established system with plenty of live rock. Some have supplented the diet with clams.

What else can I spoon feed you while you're here?

Uhmmmm. I’m not picky. Little of this and that :).
