    Thanks... I hope i dont have encounters with those sea stars. How common are they in the trade? Do they hitch rides often or are they kinda rare?

    that is correct that is their main diet, they are good at ridding a tank of pest stars such as asternia stars. other than that they are great in a tank. just dont have any stars. I know a guy that has one and he buy chocolate chip stars and freezes them and cuts a chunk off to feed the harlequin. Kind of sad for the choco star but they are such a beautifull shrimp.
