Derek Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I have a harlequin shrimp and he's eaten all the stars with the exception of my brittle star. The harlequin shrimp has been hanging out around my two foot tiger tail cucumber lately. I am a little worried since cucumbers are in the same family as starfish. Will a harlequin shrimp eat a sea cucumber? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I am wondering that myself! Got 4 tiger tail sea cucumbers in my tank and wondering if I get a harlequin... will they be toast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timfish Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 That's one of those things my first reaction is "you should be fine". But then I think about it and then I start wondering "what if" because I haven't really tried that combination before and sometimes you don't really know until you try it so go ahead and try it for us please Derek.

Derek Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 Looks like the harlequin doesn't like tiger tails. He was crawling on one for a few hours then they parted ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
