Hello Everyone, My starfish seems to be loosing 2 of its limbs. I attached a couple pictures to see what is happening. Can anyone identify why it’s happening & How I can treat it?

It's probably dying.

It's hard to tell for sure from the underside, but I'm assuming it's a Fromia Tile Starfish. How long have you had it?

I've tried starfish twice. Both died. They are cool but not for me.
 
its unlikely that theres a lot you can do...omce they begin to decline in health, its usually a matter of days before they completely disintegrate.
