So this is my buddies, standard 4x2x2 120g.

He eats about 1/3 tsp of pellets a day, and he will find any dead fish well before you.

11/10 brittle boy

I like him, my buddy has had him over a decade now so he's def old for a captive star.
 
Looks like beauty.


Really, a live fish eater. Mine hides so much i would have never guessed it could catch a livefish.
 
I will tell you this...my fish stopped going missing after I got rid of it.

This one doesn't eat anybody, but my friend also dumps in about 1/3 TSP per day of pellets that he gets at least 1/4 to 1/2 of, so probably about 1/6th TSP of pellets a day just for this big star. Maybe that's why he doesn't bother hunting anything... Either way, he'll definitely find a dead fish well before my buddy will. he only comes out for feeding otherwise you'd never know he was in tank.
