Best starfish reefsafe not brittle stars

[Caleb Kruse]

As the title says what is the best kind of starfish that is reef safe. I don't want a brittle star.

the linkia and fromia stars seem to not last much more than a year in a tank..you need lots of rockwork for them to feed from.and in a tank that has been up and running for quite some tiem.i have a fromia that i have had for almost 2 years now and that is a long time....those stars seem to starve to death after a year....brittle stars seem to be the most hardy..i have 2 that i have had for 4 years now and have been through it all..other than brittle stars there really is not a good reef safe star that will live long in our tanks.

Asterina. Good little algae eaters.

Best of luck,
