I can't picture selling them, as most tanks in Calgary have thousands. I know I have many. Every time I feed the tank my rocks become a sea of waving arms. :eek:

Well maybe YOU wouldn't picture selling them, but for someone who likes starfish, especially tiny micro ones.. and for a person who has none :rolleyes: (moi) I would be willing to pay for some... I know I can't keep any type of starfish in a 20g, so this would be the cloest thing, and I just find them neat :mrgreen:

So if someone is willing to go through the work of scooping some up and selling me them,, LMK!

I am sure I could part with some. Usually all I have to do is lift up a rock, and there will be some underneath. If you want to go through the trouble of coming over, I would not charge for them. :biggrin: :eek:

This is not to be construed as an offer for one and all to come over. :biggrin:

Lol, I've seen a similar species in the US, a little smaller though. They are sweet. I dropped a dead moth infront of one(it was inside the reception center at Carlsbad Caverns), and it jumped on it and munched it down like you wouldnt believe lol. Put it ouside cause people were trying to step on it.
