Really.. I always related Starfish to 5 legged... Thats soo strange. I got 2 tho. Thanks EmilyB :), they came on one of the zoo frags i got from you

Thanks guys

Starfish (class Asteroidea) usually have 5 legs however they can have many more than that. Brittle stars aren't true starfish and are a in a different class, the Ophiuroidea.

They are excelant sand sifters
