have you ever thought of doing a large predatory tank? I have never seen any good educational videos on predatory tanks and fish. Like eels, lions, hawks, etc.

These guys are pretty good guys, guys!

Been afraid to add one of these for awhile due to their food requirements. Do you think there is a minimum tank size & sand depth to consider before adding one ?

Awesome 👌 🤟💛

you gotta love star fish. they come out on their own terms

Great stuff. Can you remind me again why you building 3 identical tanks? Love your info.

all right gang

hey where did you get your fish tank from

Ryan, your tanks have 2 overflows, but it looks like only 1 of them (the left side) is plumbed for each tank. Can you explain the setup of the right side overflow for the tanks?

What did you feed them

are they reef safe or wsill they bother zoes

Do they eat a lot of the beneficial bacteria?

I have a banded cat shark in my tank with clown fishes. Do you think it'll be a big mistake to have a sand sifting starfish in the same tank?.

I just let up a saltwater tank... im a newbie to saltwater. I added sand.. but we added a lot. Id say 5-6 inches deep. I am looking into what I should add to help keep it sifted and churned. Its a new tank and I am a newbie like I said.. so looking for some beginner friendly.

Thank you for your video. I actually have three sand Stars two are very active in getting the sand but one just sits on a top of live rock near where I have the air pump and water circulating and hardly moves. I don't know what he's eating and I don't know why he doesn't bury himself in the sand.

Glad it helped

are those the aqueous 60 gallon frameless tanks?

what type of sand is at 3:16

can I have one of these with a sea urchin?

so will you see these guys above the sand at all? just wondering how to get an idea if they are eating properly and doing well.

I just bought one today...the guy at the store said they will most likely come out at night every once in awhile...but not see it for a long time could be a cause for worry just make sure ur tank has enough algae for them...i bought one because i dont have the fancy equipment to run my tank so i get algae build up often but nothing crazy like hair algae so this starfish works for me.

Reef safe?

Do sand sifting starfish eat corals

Your video was very nice and khowledgeable please make a video upon sea hourse

They prefer deep sand beds 3-4" . Yes they are reef safe.

How are these for live sand i heart they can deplete the bacteria or is that just a myth great video once again ( mandy)

What is he doing when the starfish is not moving? - Chuan

20 second intro is 20 seconds too long

0:25 to skip the intro bullshit

not always, sometimes for captive bred they do, in tropic locations, low tide comes early in morning, sand sifting sea stars exposed to air on the sand bar ( still wet sand, their body is exposed to air for couple hours or so) , you can pick up hundreds of them, in the wild they find a way to adapt to this.
