wow im totally blown away, i just saw the most beautiful little starfish in my tank. it looks like some sort of brittle star, it has a very small black disk with long black and yellow banded legs (well looks like yellow in the dark). does anyone know what this might be? im surprised that it survived in the rock as i thought starfish were very sensitive to acclimation.

oh btw the rock is all jakarta.

I have two of those little guys that like to hide in my veggie clip. I hand feed them once in awhile. Cool little brittle starfish.
