Hello Everyone! I just purchased a general starfish. It's not the red one that I keep finding on google, but it is more of a brownish, black, and gray color. It's really kind of boring looking, but I like it all the same. Anyway, how big do they get? Are they the same as the ever so popular red general or are they different? I can't find any info on him, only the red general... Also, should I try and feed it or will it just find it's own source of food. My tank: 200 gallon, DSB (5 inches), 75gal sump/refugium/ wet/dry, volitan lionfish and blueface angel, and some live rock (I think about 175lbs or so). Tank is fully cycled. I got the starfish to hopefully keep my sandbed clean and lower maintenance. The gravel vac doesn't work at all due to my super fine sand (like sugar). Oh, I have about 80 red hermits and a bunch of different kinds of snails. No corals, but some polups and shrooms. Thanks!
