Missing star

[emonemo420]

I belive i asked a ? about my serpant star before because last time i saw him he was kinda shaking himself apart. By that i mean i saw him swining one of his arms in the "air" and making part of his tentacles come off. So i asked why he was doing this and someone said maybe ph, maybe salinity, etc etc and all were good other then salinity being a little low and i was raising it, but the other day when i ripped all my rock up to catch a fish i didnt see the star...ne where...i hadnt seen him in quite a while and i justthought he was hiding or something...but when u rip everything up and dont see him im starting to thing he spontaneously combusted or he died and my hermits ate him up or something idk but either way hes mia...maybe burried in the sand? i never heard of em doing this though...

i had asked before how you acclimated your star... don't think you ever answered..? anywho i'd say if it was acting that bad and you really tore the tank apart and didn't see it, it's probably dead and eaten. :( BUT you never can tell with these little buggers, they sure do hide good!

Good chance he is gone...BUT good chance he is still there hiding. I've read about people not seeing the things for more than a year or more.
