Bought last night at LFS in MI. Seems to be doing OK. They just recieved them Wed. Not real big but great color. They still have some left. Would be great in a nano tank.

Did you get it at Exotics and Aquatics? My wife wants a star for her softie tank.

Yes, they had about four left. They also had a big blue one but one leg was missing.

Maybe they cut the leg off to make another star?Hope not.

I was told that if the linkia lost a leg they wouldn't grow them back??

Quote from Dr. Foster & Smith:

"In the wild, the Blue Linckia Sea Star is capable of regenerating a new starfish from almost any portion of its body that might break off. In the home aquarium, this is far less likely".
