Tony gave me a few mini brittle stars tonight while I was there getting Monte the Mantis.

This little guy took a shining to a small hole on some Tonga Branch

I guess the excitement was just too much for him to handle because after a few moments in there he came out, slowly arched up and then the fun began...and kept going...and going...

Probably induced by the change of water params in a new tank. Hopefully its not a distress discharge to populate before he dies. I think I acclimated them long enough.
