A basket star was one of my newbie purchases. I was told they were very easy to keep..

It was really a tragic experience watching it die piece by piece, it's legs falling off one by one over a two week period.

Ah that sucks! Hopefully that LFS that sold you it was informed and they don't bring them in anymore
