Thanks! I haven't paired him yet but heard they get together really easily when the size is about the same. I feed him one chocolate chip star about every month to month and a half. I am currently planning to have Asterina star multiplying tank so I can feed him like 10 everyday and a chocolate chip star every 3-4 months.
 
either my skunk cleaner or my fire red shrimp, fire red for color and my skunk cleaner for personality

Do you just give him the whole starfish or do you portion it at a time?
 
My 2 skunk cleaners in their favorite spot, they love to clean my hand as well if i put it in their "station"

Bonus points to whoever knows what this is. It's not a Peppermint Shrimp, wrong genus!

Please tell me more about tge different shrimp from the Hawaiian harlequins(i think thats what they are) down to the last guy please ;Drool
 
Doesn't bother any corals (like cleaner shrimp can) and minds his own business... but he stands his ground. He'll move out the way most of the time but if you mess with him he'll pinch the tar out of your hand. He was the size of a quarter when I got him, now if he stretched his big claws out he'd be about the size of a dollar.
