That sinking feeling ...

[Mental1]

I have an abundance of brittle stars. They are making frags sink! What do you do to compensate? Just pick stuff up periodically and fill the holes in?

[addicted4life]

What are your frags located on ? Do you need that many brittle stars ?

[Mental1]

I have an acan and a scoly on the sand that I am concerned about the most. I have some rics that were on a clam/oyster that a brittle went under, it sunk and then starved because I was dumb. They don't bother with the small frags. The stars are very happily reproducing in my tank and came with the rock. I never added one! I saw all these little half inch white things sticking out of the rock -- it's baby brittles! I bet I have more brittle stars per square inch of tank than anyone. Guess I could catch a few and sell them/give them away....

I have a neon green wrasse that loves brittle stars... pack them up and send to me or get a neon green wrasse

If they multiply too quickly, they can become a nuisance in your tank. I'd find something to eat them (like jedimike said), or start picking them out.

i had a sixline wrasse that completely devoured every one of those in my tank...
