its impossible to do. It takes months for the starfish to recover and there is never enough food in a sump for the sucker to survive anyways. I just buy a chocolate chip starfish (smallest one i can find) and give that to my guy. It takes him a bit to finish it. I probably feed him once a month to every 5 weeks.


keep an eye on the chocolate chip stars for they are not reefsafe, though once the harley gets him its game over
