    Just another dumb question

    Some species of starfish actually do have eyes, there just not detectable, there usually at the end of there arms close to there tube feet. And like was said before, there are other ways of telling whether it's safe or not to come out.

    Sterilizer

    Yea all UV's do is kill bacteria, which prevents a lot of diseases, It's still a useful tool to have tho.

    lion wont eat

    Yea basically try everything till it finds something it likes. Just don't pollute your water. And yes I'd also recommend the garlic soak; I use the premaid formula by SeaChem called Garlic Guard. It works great with fresh and saltwater fish; I especially use it when I purchase finicky eating...

    LFS Received a Blue Ring Octopus

    Blue ringed Octopi arn't that agressive. They should be kept in a species only tank however. The only way they'll bite you is if you really annoy it, you'd have to really get it mad to do so. They are fairly inexpensive... I saw ones the size of a dime selling for $20 a while ago. They actually...
