    Chocolate Chip Starfish

    I have a chocolate chip starfish that has 4 points, not 5. I have looked at all the information and pictures of C.C. starfish and only see pictures of 5 point ones. I am aware they will regrow a leg if main body is still intact, but it doesn't look like a leg is missing. Is a 4 point normal...

    What is Reef/Fish only tanks?

    New to the scene, is a "reef only" tank just corals and shrimp/clams and stuff like that without any fish? If you have a fish only tank, I thought fish have to have LR, or is LR not "reef"? Or does that just mean there are no crabs, shrimp ect.?
