    A challenge that is going to take some figuring

    yeah, its the filtration thats the problem, and the return pump. I have a canister below the tank now. There is no room outside the stand for any equipment either. Guess I may just need to move the tank to the basement and send plumbing through wall if I cant figure out how to have a sump...

    Tiger Serpent Star - friend or foe?

    Thanks for the welcome. I would have leaned that way if the markings and shape i.e. brittle or not were not identical. The stripping and the shape are exactly the same, hence I must lean toward offspring. I am going to try and get a picture tonight. Is there a way to add pictures to the...

    Tiger Serpent Star - friend or foe?

    I also have a tiger banded star fish, and yesterday I found out it had babies. I have found 3 so far in the rockwork, all miniture copies of the 10" one (they are around 3/4" or so) and have the markings just like him (or her). Not sure how it happened since I only have one banded, have a dark...
