OK, I have my LFS checking the list to find me a blue star. After reading a post I decided to do what I should have done before I asked for the star and I read up on it.
They are very sensitive to Nitrates. Mine are almost always above 20ppm because I have CC and a wet/dry combined with a large porcy puffer and a large v lion.
They need an established tank, my current tank I cycled from scratch about 8 months ago. I only added LR about 2 months ago. I have a general star, 2 urchins, and a hermit crab already and I'm concerned about adding another algea eater.
Do I need to wait for the blue? Is there another star or interesting invert that I could add now?
