hey guys..this is Hercules the Harlequin shrimp. I think hes in better shape than me!! this dude is carrying that whole starfish up a big piece of LR. i got him from Ocean Gallery (thanks Brian!!) about 2 mos ago and hes eaten about 4 choco chips already !! is this normal? i thought its 1 per month !! anyway. just thought id share this pic. though it gets expensive buying food..the design and colors on these creatures are so beautiful that im willing to spend the extra money to keep him happy. i currently have him in my 10g external fuge, along with 1 baby clown, 2 domino damsels, chaeto, and grape caulerpa. enjoy !! sorry for the crappy pic. it was taken from my blackberry.

I would feed mine about every two weeks, although I only had one for about 5 months...I have been told that they will search for food when they are hungry. You should be able to see him/her walking around the tank "searching" for food...at least that has been what Ive been told, and worked well with mine while I had one. Best of luck
