NanoBob Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Just thought I would share some pics... Asterina star Ricordia Zoos Bob Link to comment
rickjg Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Hey NanoBob What are your Asterina stars eating? I had some tiny star hitchhikers in my last nano and they ate coralline algae like crazy, but not the normal purple & pink colors. I had some really nice colors, like deep red, orange & lime green coralline on my rocks and the crazy little stars chewed it all off, every last drop. You could see little clean patches around every little star on the rocks. Once they ate all the coralline that they liked, they just disappeared, never to be seen again. I like your Ricordia, they are sweet. I just got a rock with a few just like yours from someone I work with. Rick Link to comment
NanoBob Posted February 22, 2006 Author Share Posted February 22, 2006 Rick, To be honest I don't know what the star eats, I just found it yesterday. In doing a little research I found out they will eat most algae, but usually will just eat surface scum. You must of had one that was very hungry!! Thanks for the ricordia comment, I just picked that polyp up last night. Hopefully it stays around longer than the others I have tried. For some reason Rics don't like my tank. They seem to be my Achelies heal (sp?) Bob Link to comment
