I have two inverts, a pencil urchin and a choc. chip star in a FOWLR 55 gal. tank. What other inverts -urchins- starfish etc. would be compatible? The choc. chip is the most aggressive in the tank.
'lil story: It He crawled over a red Atlantic starfish half his size, and dissolved the whole thing.
He also pounced on a large Haitian Atlantic anemone. I kinda thot THAT would happen, It only cost $3:50, and was killing small fish in the reef. (THAT satisfied him for a week)
But I didn't like when it hovered over a newly bought sea egg urchin, despite all the sharp spines and sucked the insides out in less than 24 hours after purchase. :verymad: (it happened overnite). I've read choc. chip don't live long, and die of starvation, but this guy has lived over 3 years and is a voracious eater.

Does anyone else have choc. chip starfish in their fish only tanks and what other inverts do you have in their tank? I know they are NOT REEF SAFE. I wonder if he would eat the pencil urchin, if the pencil wasn't hiding in between the rock all the time. Thanks for your input...
