[QUOTE="ISpeakForTheSeas, post: 10995749, member: 185928"] With the sand dollar, I would guess you have [I]Dendraster excentricus[/I], the eccentric sand dollar, but I don't know for certain. These guys feed primarily on pods (Tisbe, Tigriopus, Acartia, Parvocalanus, etc.), rotifers (Brachionus spp.), other small crustaceans, and diatoms (Isochrysis/T-iso, Chaetoceros, Thalassiosira, Pavlova, etc.), but they also feed on algae fragments; larvae have been reared on [I]Dunaliella tertiolecta[/I], [I]Isochrysis galbana[/I], and [I]Rhodomonas spp. [/I] The hard part is likely going to be feeding them enough, and these guys apparently bury themselves in the sand at low tide, then filter feed from the flow at high tide.
