Brittle star fish??

[midgetmonks52491]

Hey I'm in need of a little extra hand with my cleanup crew. Where do they come from? Local pet store suggested me to get some mini brittle star. And told me people have a lot like paracites. Does anyone have any mini brittle star to help me out? I'll be most greatfull. If not thank for comments and your time. Willing to meet up in Seattle.

Well from what I've read, and from the two I have in my tank that I don't ever see lol. They pick an area and usually stay there, using there arms to grab detrius, and left overs where there arms can reach. This staying in one spot is to protect there center. I was told to get a couple of astrina stars, but to watch out because they can multiple into a full spread outbreak. But a pepperment shrimp would handle that. They also do a good job on shallow sand beds
