do the starfishes go bad eventually?

We have had ours about 6 months. Not sure if they will go bad but they are ok now.

They hold up well with 5 and 7 years olds and would most likely do well in an aquarium. I would be careful because they are from China and you need to make sure that something in them would not be harmful to the fish.

Yes they are when exposed to moisture. will dissolve in a fishes mouth after a few dayts.

I left them out all summer and they have been out all winter too and they seem fine . If they can withstand South Carolina summers they can handle anywhere . I have 8 of them around my pool . Of course if you do store then they will last longer .

I've had mine over a year. Two seasons and it's still just as good. It's just a waxy substance kinda like surf board wax. No reason it should go bad or stop working from one season to the next. Mine is more than half gone and prob will need to get another at the end of this year.

Mine have survived a few weekends going through creeks and mud. I am not sure about prolonged time submerged, but I have had them underwater for 15-20 minutes a time or two with no problem.

Not sure, but we use very coarse sea salt crystals and have never had a problem.

Yes they will float for a while. Don't leave them in the water for a long time.

That's a really good question. I would reach out to Burt's bees. I know oils can go bad but normaly you can tell.

Just a little, not as bad as I thought they may be, I also think with a little more use & wear they will get better! Ive had them out fishing about 7 times now and its not as bad as day 1. I hope this helps you. I am very happy with them

I have one too, and the things really don't work very well. I've seen them go in and come right back out. Did catch a few that died but they definitely are not worth the money.

I find that after several uses, when you would think the strength of the sanitizer has diminished, the liquid becomes cloudy. I store diluted Star San in a sealed fermentor that last several batches before it becomes cloudy.

I have yet to see one degrade. It would take at least a year, probably more. I am in the Midwest, it is the end of summer and there are bb's in my yard from last winter. I got one and it does not appear to have degraded at all. I tried soaking one in water for a couple of weeks when we first got them to see what would happen and it did not degrade at all. Regardless of whether or not they are better for the environment, they are better than the plastic ones because they are heavier, do not break as easily, and they do not have the seam.

Unknown. I do know that two of them have grown some soft corals in a ten gallon. I have placed one over a mini fuge and the cheato has gone nuts as well. I haven't tried them on fresh water.

As long as they are not open they last awhile. Even if opened, if closed tight will last.

Neon guppies died after a month. Betta lived a year. Goldfish lasted four months. I had three different tanks.

About half of them sink right away , while the rest seems to float for a while . I think this company might make a floating food . If you try this one you might want to try a small jar first. Most of the aquarium shops I know feed this food to their fish cichlids love it
