| Fast Facts | The Green Brittle is an old standby among maintenance animals. They usually remain among the rockwork, except at feeding time when they can be seen immediately chasing food. Virtually indestructible, they are outstanding scavengers that can survive on nearly anything. Algae, detritus, deceased fish, whatever food is available, these starfish will make use of it. Excellent for cleaning up after feeding fish. | ||||||
