brittle star?

[sheepersheep]

i’m like 90% sure this is a tiny brittle star, but just wanted to run it by The Experts. i’ve only ever noticed the little legs, i’ve never seen his body at all, or bodies, i think there are at least 3

I have dozens if not a hundred micro brittle stars and all I ever see is their little legs sticking out.

With shipping it comes out to like 75 bucks and I can't justify that for a hitchiker. I know i could order more stuff from them, but they dont have anything i want.

Your best bet is to reach out to a local reefing community.

I would gladly give some to you if you were in SoCal
