Hello,

We have a 55g FOWLR tank that we recently obtained from a friend. This tank has been set up for almost 2 years now. It has had an ocellarus clownfish in it for about a year and a half. We recently put an African Starfish in the tank.

We are wanting to add some marine plants to the tank in addition to the live rock. Is this a possibility? We cannot seem to find any information online. I know starfish eat coral, but I didn't know if there were any Marine Plants that we could put in our tank to add a bit more to it.

Thanks!

Thanks! I actually looked there before, but I'm wondering if the Kelp and maybe the brush plant will hold up to my starfish. I know the starfish will eat coral, but I didn't know how they handled marine plants.

Any advice????
