Hey all, I found this little guy this morning when my lights came on! I am excited, but not sure where he came from. Is there any way to know if it is a mini or just a baby big one? I am assuming a mini. It is only about 3/4” tip to tip.

Mini brittle star. I get excited when I see them too. It was probably on live rock you brought it in on. If you didnt use lr probably came in on a frag.

I did use live rock, but this is the first time seeing one. I recently got some frags from a friend. SO, I am assuming it came in on one of those.
