.5-1g starfish tank

[TheUnfocusedOne]

so i have all these starfish in my tank that i dont want

but i dont really want to kill em

so i decided to give em to my sister

im planning on making a small .5-1g tank

im gonna through in a piece of live rock and some regular sand

im gonna get some kind of small hob filter, possibly the left over one from my picotope

lighting is gonna be something really small just to grow some algea on it for the starfish to eat

i might get a hermit or a snail for it too, just for kicks

anyone have any input on this to help me in this tiny tank expedition?

im not worry about the water quality, these guys survived my tank cycling, im sure theyll be fine

sounds like a very bad idea

they'll run out of food in no time

start a harlequin shrimp tank.

like a 2.5 gallon, or a 5 gallon.

the tank itself is really cheap!

they have em at petco or petsmart for like $8

Yeah a harlequin shrimp aquarium would be awesome!

amonia/nitritite/nitrate would become extremly high

if i put a light on it would it grow algae fast enough to sustain them?
