that's awesome! my harlequin just sits inside his cave on top of his chocolate chip all day and all night...he's beautiful but he never moves away from his dinner and i never get to see him really...I kept one by feeding it brittle and serpent stars. The shrimp would chase the star and eventually rip off a leg. Then chow down. I had 4 stars that he fed off of until I sold him.
I had a bad asterina star problem in an old tank and got a harlequin. He wiped them out completely!I have and abundance of asterina that I would like gone for the most part, they do eat those too right?
I was basically only wanting one for that task.
I am having the same problem with the star fish could i add a harlequin shrimp to a 75 gal that already has a fire shrimp, skunk cleaner, and an orange.coral banded shrimp?I had a bad asterina star problem in an old tank and got a harlequin. He wiped them out completely!
They will eat them but the problem is no matter how many you have they will consume all of them from your tank in a fairly short amount of time. You will then have to sell the harlequin or purchase stars to feed it or else they will starve to death.I have and abundance of asterina that I would like gone for the most part, they do eat those too right?
