thanks, I am already reading up on them. Better get to the store and get a magnifying glass. Thanks for the fast response.

Now I'm freaking out. I don't know how I would even see them if they aren't on the glass. I am sure I will be glued to my tank all day...watching.

So, it is just a pinch on their daily food? Sounds easy enough.

There were quite a few of these on my glass this morning. I have never seen them before. There is also a white dot by it (egg?) Anyone know what is it and if it is good or bad? thanks

I bought some cyclo-peeze yesterday (whole freeze dried) and there aren't clear instuctions on how to use it. Could anyone tell me how they add it to the tank? Thanks

I like when my husband goes shopping with me and I get things like this!

I took the powerhead out and cleaned it. It is back and in more spots. Is this stuff bad and if so, how do I get rid of it. I am still looking for my final fish for this tank. Is there one that eats this stuff?

My husband bought a red fromia on a whim. We usally read up on what we purchase ahead of time. It didn't last a week. No more starfish for me. I hate being the one that caused it to die. I really have no idea what the reason was but he didn't survive.

I sure won't use this food. I wasn't certain about the salt etc. so that is why I asked. Could someone tell me what the right kind would be and where I could possibly buy it. Thanks to everyone for the input.

My parameters are all good. I did the float method for 40 minutes. I have noticed my hippo tang taking off with some pretty big crabs so I thought maybe it had been picking on the starfish. I was within a few hours that all this happened. It looked like something had been ripping its insides...

He died, that was quick

I got a Red Sea Star last week and I noticed today that something is eating it right in the center of it. Should I take it out and destroy it or should I just leave it? I read about it after my husband bought and saw that it doesn't have a good survival rate. Any suggestions?

thanks, Spanko.. That is what it is. I don't have it anywhere in my tank so I will take the powerhead out today and give it a good scrubbing.

I don't know what this is, good or bad. I only have it growing on one of my powerheads.
