How long have they been living together? I have a single serpent star I would get more if they can cohabitate in a 48 gallon reef.
I'm interested in these. How long have you had it? What is it eating? I did some Google searches and it said they eat sponges in the ocean, just wondering if they can be happy in captivity. Super cool addition I'm jealous [emoji2]I'm told my orange bisquit star is quite rare, not sure if that's true or not, but I've never seen another for sale. My wife spotted it and had to have it, she named it cheesit lol. He lives in my 65 gallon. He has inspired my wife to agree to a large in wall build as part of a home addition in a couple years!
I have had him a year next week. He has grown about 25% since I got him, which makes me think he is getting what he needs. I have never target fed him. The rock in the tank came out of a 10 year old tank being torn down and there is a lot of sponge on the undersides of the rock. This tank usually has some cyano to be found along with small amounts of red and green nuisance algae, so not super clean. I have tried to determine what is missing after he moves on from a rock and haven't really been able to find exactly what he is taking. I have a lot of BTA splits and he did end up parked on top of a super small one for a day and that nem disapeared. He has never bothered any of the other dozen nems in the tank so maybe an innocent mistake. When he was new he was parked on top of some generic purple shrooms and I lost a couple so maybe there is more to it. I have noticed the aptasia he passes over are unfazed . Hope that is of some help!I'm interested in these. How long have you had it? What is it eating?

This is my big star.
It should still be there. Our orange is the most cryptic of our 8 brittle starfish.I added an orange striped serpent star over a month ago. Saw it in the bag, saw it in acclimation container, saw it scurry away under a rock... that was the last time I saw it. Lol. I would love to post a picture. I’ve hunted for it with a flashlight at night. Gone gone gone. Wonder if he ended up CUC food.
