It's story time! Cue dramatic voice -
I remember the day I found it. After months of watching, staring, inspecting every inch of my live rock looking for something cool that had made its way into the tank, I saw it. A tiny, white, perfectly shaped starfish. I yelped with excitement and called my husband over to the tank, saying over and over "it's right THERE, don't you see it??" until he gave me an exacerbated "oh, yeah, cool". I don't think he really saw it....
Fast forward several months and they have taken over my tank....asterina starfish. And they've eaten almost all of my coralline algae and have now moved on to my coral!
So everyone, please welcome my new little buddy, Harley!
(And yes, I have researched Harlequin shrimp care post-Asterina murder fest)
