Orange starfish

[Kapachuka3]

I’ve seen that some people have orange starfish’s and I’ve always thought they looked cool but I have no idea what there called. Can anybody give me some info on those, and how to take care of them. Etc...

orange starfish’s kinda like a chocolate chip one but orange.

I have an orange sea star. I've read they're a bit more hardy than the blue linckia. It's been in the tank for about a month. I wouldn't put any star in a tank that wasn't established. FWIW my tank is a little over 2 years old.

There is several different species of stars that can come in an "orangeish" variety but the thing to remember is being able to supply them with a proper diet, correct acclimation, and not housing with predators!

I do love stars though! As long as they are in the right system! Research all day before pulling the trigger!
