    I have a cool Red Sea Star, got him for $10 at petco lol. He's an awesome little guy. NEVER moves when I'm looking at him, but when I look away for a few minutes he's on the other side of the tank -_- what a punk haha

    What size tank? IMO fromia's can be relatively easy to care for compared to other reef safe stars.

    brittle stars do well long term. I had one once that came in with a bad arm, it never grew out, and after about 8-9 years 3 others rotted off, but that last arm was like 12 inch compared to the 1-2 of the others.
