Red Bali star problem???


I've had my red bali star for a few weeks now, and everything seems fine, but he has these little bubbly, bally, balloony things (whatever you want to call them) on him. Around 3 of them. they're small... but what the heck is it? Is he going to be okay? The edges of his little legs are curled up a little too... I dunno if it has always been like that and I just noticed, or what.

HELP!

Possibly?


Okay, I have a Bali Organe Spot Star. Is this kinda what you are talking about?

"On the underside, near the mouth, there is a white/cream-colored "sac" that looks like the star is maybe turning inside-out?"

It seems like mine does this every few days (maybe every day, but I don't see it). I was really worried about it, but it seemed fine later in the day every time this happened.

I've had mine for a few months now, and he seems to do that once in a while, and always be okay.

CAREFUL THOUGH: Mine also got banished to a smaller tank after he plowed all the way across a Green Star Polyp colony, eating every last polyp.

Not exactly reef-safe... they like to eat coral polyps.
