I’ve heard that happens a lot. I’ve got a pair of Bimac’s and waiting on another 4 females to be shipped in a couple of weeks. I’ve been told the lyretail fair better in groups as well as the Bimac’s.
I have no idea but seems like one persons good accomplishment with them is another persons disaster...

True. I guess time will tell with mine.
I hope you get great success. I've kept 3 bimacs together for 2 years. They didnt kill each other. I jyst cant recall if they died to my heater breaking, or if the starfish ate them... green brittlestar ate a lot of my fish before i figured out what was happening to them.

That’s the reason I don’t keep any brittlestars. I know some are safe but not taking chances with some of the more expensive fish I keep.

You got other safer options. Lots and plenty of snail, tuxedo urchins. Shrimp are probably expensive snacks...

My angelfish did the same when I added a SCS. Was around 3” and I added it at night too but that didn’t help. In the morning found the remnants of the shrimp inside the angels cave, and the angelfish a little chunky…..

Yep sort of. Got the old system to storage first thing this morning then blew one of those pre formed hoses in my car. So spent the last 4 hours fixing car. Throttle body heater inlet hose... 1 shop out of 9 in town luckily had the part.
Sump build will be tomorrow. I'll get light mounts hung on wall today hopefully though.
