Yup, I learned the hard way too with only acclimating a linkia star for an hour. The wounds your seeing are probably the star deteriorating. Mine died from this after a couple of days. Same thing happened the wounds got worse & fish started to pick at the star.

Later I read many articles that claimed you needed to acclimate these stars, said to be extremely sensitive to salinty changes for about 12hours. Anyone know for sure how long?

Hope your Mr. Star makes it. Best of Luck!
