I was curious if anyone has or has had a Harlequin Shrimp? I am think of getting one and I wanted to know what kind of results people are having with them. Also, I have a Tuxedo Urchin and he keep stealing my Zoas and wearing them like a hat. He has about 3 of them on him now and I want them back. Any tips?
 
I have a harlequin shrimp. Did wonders to my Astraea star infestation. I now fees it chocolate star fish once a month because he only eats live star fish
 
I had a single harlequin shrimp in my 55g about a year ago. It only took him a few months to eat ~ 1000 asterina stars. Once his job was done I passed him on to a fellow reefer in need :D As far as the tuxedo urchin goes, they will pick up anything that isn't glued down!
