Hi! I work at a seafood restaurant and we had a lobster delivery come in with a really small starfish. I am wondering if anyone can help me ID what kind of starfish it is? We want to take proper care of it!

Could be a number of species. Depending on where the lobsters were shipped from, it could be a cold water species. If so, it may not survive under typical tank temps.
