large Green brittle star

[wsoldier]

10" brittle star... Had this guy for a few months, but pretty sure he ate not one but two of my nems. Very cool to watch and friendly but don't want to risk losing my last nem.

Looking for other fish, colorful zoas, or euphyllia. Thanks.

Hmmmm, that’s weird sorry about your nems being eaten. I have 3 of these big guys in my tank, one of them has been in there for
15 years and none of them eat my nems. They know when they get closed to a nem with their long tentacles, they go the other way. I would take him but I already have 3, glws.

Yeah thanks... my only guess is both of the nems were on the move (one had just split)... so, maybe they weren't able to protect themselves. Really like this guy, but I like the nems more.
