Feeding Harlequin Shrimp

I just got a beautiful Harlequin Shrimp because I was told they would eat those little invasive white starfish. He may be eating them but I can't tell. I offered him several tonight and he seemed a bit oblivious. I do not want to hack apart a chocolate chip starfish so does anyone have any ideas?

They are kind of oblivious to begin with...how long ago did you get it? Sometimes they take a little time to acclimate and start eating...they should eat those stars (as long as they are asternia)

I just wanted to be sure it was ok.

Does anyone know where I can get another? I got this reddish one at The Premium Aquarium but it was their only one. I guess they are happier in pts.

mine ate any star you can throw there way.i originaly got them to eat a nuiscance asternia star and he did the trick.i would love to see your red variant as i have only seen the white.hmmm finding another one.might be something you should special order as they seem to not be one of the more common inverts. i believe its due to there cost as well as they are not the best at shipping.

Hmmmm...I am confused...are we talking about freshwater or saltwater harlequin shrimp?????
Can you guys please clarify. TY

salt...i suppose this thread should be moved.

That is what I figured, but wanted to make sure.
