I don't know what it is unfortunately but it is pretty cool looking...aside from my sand sifting star, all I ever see are Asterinas :(

That's actually not the common asterina, but something else.

Hahaha. I hope so too . Its tiny but i look forward to watching it grow though. I think the rocks came from north qld australia. Barrier reef area. So a local starfish definitely
