holdorf333 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 any plans to offer micro brittle stars? Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 They are surprisingly hard to keep in stock regularly and breeders usually want more then I am able to sell them for retail. We had them for awhile when I was collecting them, but then one day I did the math on how much we can get in revenue per hour catching them and I found out that the more we collected the more we lost.

BustytheSnowMaam Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Find an LFS that has live rock with microbrittles, buy a small chunk, and pretty soon they'll be all over your tank. Link to comment
BustytheSnowMaam Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Holdy: I have a quite a few. I might be able to dig them up when the deep freeze is over and send them to you. Would prefer to wait until the weather is above freezing. I have little stripey ones and I have white ones. Link to comment
holdorf333 Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 That would work, maybe April-ish as I still haven't filled the thing yet. 30lbs of John's rock as well. Link to comment

holdorf333 Posted March 1, 2014 Author Share Posted March 1, 2014 I usually only need a few in a chaeto fuge and they infest quickly. No need for collecting Link to comment
anthonym Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I usually end up with a few in my water changing bucket after I trim my chaeto on occasion. I can grab a few for someone the next time I pull some chaeto out. Link to comment

To either Holdor or Anthony, I am willing to pay shipping if either of you keep on getting extra micro brittle to spare. Tank is 5 months old now and still no sign of any sadly. Link to comment
