PLEASE HELP!!!!! How Many Harlequin Shrimp Is Too Much?

[Bubbles_B]

So I've noticed that these little tiny starfish have been having a feast on my lovely collection of Zs and Ps and I was wondering if Harlequin SHrimp will assist in eliminating these pest from my tank. If so can I place as many as I want into my 40 gallon prop tank?

PLEASE HELP :cry::frusty:

I've got one in my 20g DT and it wiped out my Astrenia stars in under a week. Now I feed it a CC star leg every week or two.

Thanks Smokey!!! I will go to the LFS today and get a few. Dude those stupid Astrenia Stars suck.

Yeah they do! they were killing my zoa's so I had to run out and get a harlequin, but when you start feeding em stars and if you get CC's make sure they're not in your main tank, CC's eat coral, I have three in my sump and I cut one leg off every now and again.
