Hello everyone,
Few days ago, while fishing, I've catched a starfish in Oslo fjord (Norway). I brought her home and realized she is amazing and that I would like to keep her in aquarium.
I got 72 L aquarium and filled it with salt water from the same place where I catched the starfish. While getting the sand and the water I picked a bunch of other sea creatures as well. One little shrimp, few snails and who knows what else.
I also had a small water pump from the fotain so I putted it in to make some water circulation. Also picked some sea wheed and few clamps.
The idea is to try to keep the aquarium alive and fill it with what ever I find in the sea ( maybe some crabs and small fishes also if I manage to catch them). And to change 15-20% of water every couple of days ( I live 50m from the sea so that will not be a big hastle ) .
Is this possible and if it is how can I make it work and my starfish happy and aquarium nice and clean.
Any advice is very welcome
