I was looking at those biscuit stars. Interested yo see how they hold up over time in everyone's tanks
 
Princess peach and JF bug out stylo from reefbum and nice milli from Joe from Maine who was set up with jeff aka mad hatters reef aka corals unlimited. Joe had some crazy good deals and super healthy corals especially the acros. Im pretty sure he sold out both his frag tanks at the show.

I bought two - one orange and one multicolored. The orange one is doing fine munching on things. The day after the show, the west African multicolored one was upside down being snacked on by two Halloween hermits. Not sure if it died and the hermits were cleaning up or the crabs did it in. I put the crabs in my sump just in case.

Both of mine only lasted 2 days.
 
My girls biscuit star "Queenie Starboy" made it two days unfortunately.
 
I had alot of fun and really enjoyed the show! My favorite has to be the long fins @WetPets ordered for me!! Very happy I also found a piece of the rainbow peacock chalice that was probably the nicest coralnat reefapalooza this year!

This white urchin i got has gone through most of my coralline algae on the back glass in a few days. My regular tux never touches them. And a no name anemone, it is white under full spectrum and green with white bands under blue with a yellow center. Its not pretty but very unique.

Biscuit starfish are not compatible with high temperatures we keep our tanks. They do best at low 70F. When temperature is above 75F, they struggle.
Also the success rate of keeping these for long term in aquarium is very low. They should not be in the aquarium trade to begin with.

I was checking those out. I got so caught up and running around. I forgot to go back.
Well worth it imo. Think it's like $35 or $45, had to get the large one for 3/4" glass
