Peppermint shrimp loves aptasia. I have 3 of them in my 120. They do run over to investigate everything new that goes in the tank Which is not a bad thing. Because they get the hitchhiker aptasia that my LFS has a terrible problem with.

You don't say what kind of lights you have. It depends what kind of corals you want to keep as to what kind of lights you need.

How long have you had the star polyps? If the person literly just ripped them off the tank they may need a little while to bounce back. Are you acclimating your stuff before you put them in the tank?

I am new too to saltwater. My tank is about the same age as yours is. This is my first tank. But I did 9 months worth of reading before I had the tank. I am still doing plenty of reading trying to learn everything I can.
