Just got an order yesterday from Liveaquaria/Dr Foster Smith. 1st time ordering but everything looks healthy.

1) Pinapple Tree Aquacultured

2) Pink Birdnest Coral ( not really pink) Aquacultured

3) Colony Polyps Orange and Yellow. About 50+ on rock. Star fish has been on it since I put it in (hope that is not bad)

4) Beautiful White Pipe Organ Coral Took about 24 hours for them to come out, but nice mat of white (looks blue due to lighting)

5) Brian Lobophyllia About 8 or 9 on the rock

6) Xenia- These are not brand new, but man are the spreading like wildfire. Can there ever be to much?????

They are nice, the pipe-organ is really gorgeous. I like the lobophylla too

I ordered live rock from them... "Fuji Premium" and I have to say... GARBAGE! it looks like dead bleached rock. It has been in my system for 3 months now and is just starting to come to life.

Fortionately I cycled the tank with rock Tony @ ReefExotics got for me, and that stuff is really nice. I was able to hide most of the rock from Liveaquaia.

I showed another member the rock recently and they said I should have complained... but I figured I wouldn't order from them ever again, and plus it was already three months later.

I'm not sure about the preferred diet for Linkia starfish, but from those pix, it appears that yours likes Zoanthids.

He has been on them for 2-3 days now. I see no dammage and they keep blooming. I guess I just have to keep an eye on it. Wierd because that start would move all over the tank all day. Not anymore

I never got rock from them, but I was reading and some of there rock says not cured and you must boil. They are pretty good IMO. They have never given me a problem with a return and are always very very helpful. I would give them an A+ (so far)

That's not a good sign at all. It actually probably means that it has been slowly starving to death, and is nearing the end of the struggle. Don't take my word for it, I'm not a starfish expert, and you might not have anything to worry about.
Here's a search I did for you in the invert forum on Linkia Starfish. You may still be able to save it if you act now.
