hey guys,
I love inverts and their alienlike looks/behaviour. Untill now i considered my reef kinda fresh and new and i stayid with the “basic” easy inverts. My reef is now over a year old and im looking for suggestions for interesting inverts. To get me right im not looking for any particularly hard to keep creatures and i woulnt consider myself an expirienced reefkeeper after a year, still id like to hear what you would recommend me to look into.
What i currently have:
Nassarius, trochus, turbo snails
Fighting conch
Tuxedo urchin, short spined Urchin
RBTA
Red/Black Brittle starfish
2 Lysmata Kykenthali Shrimp(peppermint shrimp alike)
All in a 60g mixed reef with a pair of perc. Clowns and a Golden Dwarf Moray, soon joined by a Mandarin Dragonet.
I tried Starfish twice(fromia and indian Starfish) the both died in accidents where my ato resorvoir ran empty and after refilling they died. (There was never more than a gallon of Ro-di water added at a time but the still couldnt handle it)
I didnt expect them to be that sensitive and i think i will stay away from starfish if theres no species that more hardy like the brittles.
