    In just two weeks of having a brittle starfish that I pulled out of the shallows at Maeda Point has really grown!
    It's body was probably 1/8th of an inch wide, well it decided to move out of the hole in a rock it was living in today while we were by the tank and it has at least grown 3x that already.
    What do these guys eat? I see his arms reach out when I feed the other fish or if sand is stirred up, but other than that no special treatment.. truth be told he was a hitch hiker from a rock pulled at maeda
