Here is a link to GARF's website:  http://www.garf.org/news26p2.html#STAR.  I first read about these starfish here.  I then spent a lot of time removing them from my tank.  I decided to stop wasting my time since I don't have any SPS corals.  Some people view them as a pest, others don't.  GARF recently updated their site with additional info found here:  http://www.garf.org/STAR/starfish.html. ]]> Tue, 24 May 2005 13:34:15 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65647&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65647 <![CDATA[hitchhiker star pic : I have a couple in my 12g nano...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65641&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65641 Author: Biodork

I have a couple in my 12g nano and they don't seem to do any harm that I can see.  I've heard that if they get their full number of legs, they will begin reproducing like mad.  Mine always are missing legs.  Can anyone confirm this?]]> Tue, 24 May 2005 11:49:16 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65641&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65641 <![CDATA[hitchhiker star pic : Sorry, looks like my webserver...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65580&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65580 Author: jordanh

Sorry, looks like my webserver went down last night; I finally got the domain updated too: thats why its just referenced with the ip address. The picture should work now; let me know if you have any more problems.]]> Mon, 23 May 2005 18:57:48 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65580&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65580 <![CDATA[hitchhiker star pic : I think the pic is on his computer...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65579&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65579 Author: fj40fax

I had hundreds in my tank and found no good reason to pull any out. They grazed on rocks and glass, never on corals.

Ive got several. Ive seen them in several other members tanks and when asked about them they have said to leave them alone. The only thing that they seam to eat is waste.

I pull out at least twenty of them a week.... They are more of a nuisance than anything because they multiply so fast.  Now I have Bruce's (pistonfister) harlequin shrimp in my tank, on loan. So hopefully he will eat them all, and solve that problem for now. Harlequin shrimp are awsome btw.]]> Sun, 22 May 2005 23:34:01 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65514&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65514 <![CDATA[hitchhiker star pic : Have you seen yours huring coral?...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65505&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65505 Author: jordanh

Have you seen yours huring coral? I've heard that they are harmless and I've also heard what you are telling me. Anyone else have any experience with these things? Mine hitched a ride on a rock from Bird World.]]> Sun, 22 May 2005 22:51:26 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6647&PID=65505&title=hitchhiker-star-pic#65505
