Our quarantine procedures
Our quarantine procedures
We take livestock seriously. That's why we don't sell anything we wouldn't be comfortable putting in our own tank.
As we are direct from source, we import and sell direct to the public. This means you can buy with confidence knowing EMA prides itself on excellent handling and conditioning protocols.
All our fish held in a quarantine system for a minimum of 3 weeks. During this time, regular water changes are performed, and twice daily (or sometimes more) feedings are performed.
Copper is dosed and checked twice a day for ich and velvet.
During this treatment fish are given formalin baths for brooklynella and a minimum of 3 praziquantel doses is performed for flukes.
Description
Description
The Zebra Brittle Starfish, Ophiolepis superba, has long banded arms that reach out from the rockwork while it searches for food. It is often most visible after dark.
Aquarium care
Provide an established aquarium with caves, crevices and enough room for the arms to move freely. Stable salinity and careful acclimation are important.
Feeding
Offer small pieces of marine seafood or suitable sinking foods near its shelter. Do not rely on leftover fish food alone, especially in a clean, lightly stocked reef.
Compatibility
Usually suitable with corals and peaceful fish. Avoid animals that bite brittle-star arms, including predatory triggers and puffers. Handle carefully and never pull it from a crevice by an arm.
