Never had one but I've read that the Fromias are one of the easier reef safe stars,will scavenge for uneaten food and such.My LFS had them once...
Check out Liveaquaria.com,they have three different fromia stars listed right now.If you don't want to buy online at least you'll know what your...
I think it's pretty normal for them to hang near the top of the tank when first introduced,mine did the same,he should be fine once acclimated.
The Linkia and sandsifter are both hard to keep unless you have a large well established(MATURE) aquarium.A brittle star would be goodbut be advised...
Good idea if your into SPS,and yours look very nice and healthy.I have xenia in my tank which has spread to a different rock on the other side of the...
One thing to be learned here is that you can't always believe what your LFS tells you.One they're in business to sell more to you,and two,a lot of...
Could also be too much light,lower light levels should cause them to open larger to gather more.
Just to follow up my previous thread so others might benefit.After comparing the shrimp in question to photos on the liveaquaria site I concluded...

A 55 might be a good size to start with.A 175 pred tank would need good filtration and possibly large water changes.Personally,I think I would become...
At those prices you will have spent enough to buy a good RO/DI unit(about $150) in no time.
You might want to isolate them from other nearby rocks,they can really spread quickly and might take over areas you don't want them in.
You didn't mention a test for ammonia,this along with the others you have will be good to moniter things while your tank cycles.You want your ammonia...
