Brittle Starfish (Ophioderma sp.)

The Red Brittle Starfish is about 8-10 inches wide from the tip of one leg to the tip of another with light red color. These stars are easier to keep than many other types but will do best in a tank of at least 30 gallons. Brittle Stars Ophiuroidea, have no tube feet, and their arms are more mobile than sea stars. Their central disk is also more distinct than that of sea stars.  These will happily eat fish food and hydrated krill.

This Starfish is guaranteed for live arrival only.
