Debris...

[Randy]

I have lots of debris on the sand. what is the best way to remove them? i used graval cleaner but its difficult cause the sand will be sucked up as well ;(..added some nassa snails but invain.What eats them...

last time i use to keep twin spot goby, they usually will do the cleaning on the sand when they look for food. This action will stir up the debris. Alternatively, u can try sand shifting star fish or sea cucumber. my 2cts.

Green brittle star. Full stop. :D

read somewhere that green brittle stars might prey on small fishes when it grows larger.. any experiences with this?

[Ah-lim]

So far nope. I got some goby and hermit. Still around.

cool.. will recommend my dad to get a brittle for his tank.. because he can't have nassas (no sand), and he doesn't like shrimps.. so leftover food on the bottom might be a problem..

I used to have a adult brittle starfish, but one day i caught one of its arm holding my common clownfish. 2nd day my 2nd clownfish in its arm same location too.
