Brittlestar infestation

[Azn_gq]

So I have a question. I started my tank about a little over a year now. I seen a few brittlestars. Now it looks like I have a hundred of them. Should I be worried? Do they pose a threat? Has anyone else experienced this?

I have just as many as you lol. they take forever to grow though... just sell or trade them in as they get bigger

They are not a threat, they are great scavengers that eat detritus and uneaten food. One thing though, their population is controlled by how much food is available. So if you have ALOT, that may mean your over feeding.

Yeah they are just very little

Sell them on craigslist or trade them! If I lived near you I would come buy some myself. I can never get them at the LFS.
