Re: 240

Woa! I would cut way back on the starfish particularly the sand sifters. Generally it is recommended to have only one in a 100g tank so I think you could get by with 2 or maybe 3. The only eat the stuff under the sand and are very prone to starvation.
Looks like it is going to be a fun tank.

Re: 240

I know its a lot. I will actually add these gradually. I have a pair of harlequin Shrimp that go through Stars like a 5 year old goes through candy. I thought that they only needed like two a month, but they have rid my 100 gallon of all my stars. They even ate two serpent stars, I did not know they would eat those. This all happened in like three weeks.

Re: 240

I think they are more of an "opportunistic" feeder in they will eat as often as they can. You have to remember in the wild they don't know when/where the next meal comes from. They eat every chance they get.
