Seeking Aiptasia, micro stars

[strange_papaya]

I'm running a 1.5 gallon experiment jar with macroalgae, some coralline-encrusted rock Pacific Aquarium was kind enough to sell me, and a basic light/heater/bubbler set up. Doing this to indulge my fascination in tiny reef critters, and I would actually love to keep a pest anemone or two (or more if they like me enough to spread) in this jar as pets...since I find them cool when they're not being nuisances. Planning on overnight shipping everything back west with me when I have to leave the city for a bit in May.

Also looking for micro stars, since I haven't been lucky enough to have any hitchhike in yet.

I've checked out some LFSs and none were able to find any aiptasia for me (thank goodness, probably. lol)

For both or either, I will pay you or compensate you in whatever way seems fair ($$$, travel fare covered, coffee?) I'm in Brooklyn, would be willing to meet anywhere here or Manhattan, or Queens...or if you wanted to ship, I'd cover cost of that.

Thanks for reading!

Come to long island. You can take as many asterina stars as you can pull out of my 80g. Free

I cant get rid of my aiptasia in the city in my nano tank.

Hey everyone -- so I'm good on stars, thanks to some chaeto and a new chunk of rock, but I'll still take your aiptasia/pest anemones!

Rich, you mean Manhattan? If you were able to dislodge 'em I'd take a few off your hands.
