The Tile Starfish arrived healthy and quickly settled into my reef tank. It’s a quiet, active scavenger that helps clean up detritus without disturbing other inhabitants. Easy to maintain as long as water parameters are stable.

A nice addition to my live rock setup. It’s small but active and seems to enjoy the environment. I’ve noticed it eating leftover food and algae bits. Avoid medications or air exposure as the care instructions suggest.

Perfect for a beginner reef keeper. The starfish is hardy and doesn’t require much attention. Just keep the water conditions stable and it thrives.
