I have four freshwater tanks now, and am considering converting one to marine. I like starfish, coral shrimp and anemones; I know it's OK to keep shrimp and starfish together, but I don't know about anemones with those. I'd also like to know about feeding them: what (Formula 2?) and how often. The books I have don't go into much detail on feeding and what's OK to keep together (I've found that to be true of all aquarium books). I'd also appreciate info. on particular genera and species, eg., banded coral shrimp vs. cleaner shrimp, blue sea star vs. red spiny star, etc. I realize this is a specialized hobby and I wouldn't be surprised if there's no one on the net who keeps marine invertebrates, but I can try! Thanks just in case, B. Walsh
