i had a red serpant star that lost all its legs. it hid behind the rocks for 8 months, i actually thought it was dead because i never saw him. woke up one day and he was crusing around with skinney new limbs.. im not sure what to say.

Sand sifting stars need huge amounts of sand bed critters to survive. If you have a small tank it likely starved.
