Aquarium Advice Addict
I did some general reading on brittles and thought they ALL were reef safe. While at the LFS the other day I decided to buy a green brittle star. After 2.5 hours of acclimating, I released it into the tank and started to do some internet reading only to find out "greens" like to eat fish and decorative shrimp! The guy at the LFS didn't bother to give me any sort of heads up- thanks %$#@#&!! Has anyone had personal experiences with these? I've seen pics in the photo gallery, in one a green was sitting next to a shrimp! I target fed it today some raw shrimp which it attacked the tongs for! Any suggestions/advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. After seeing it eat that shrimp I'm alittle apprehensive about grabbing it to return it to the LFS 8O I do like it though, kind of looks like a monster from the abyss!
