yes i got one 2 months ago, all i could find about is :
FAMILY: OPHIDIASTERIDAE
COMMON NAME: COLEMAN'S NIPPLED STAR
SCIENTIFIC NAMES: Gomophia sp.
20 metres, Moreton Bay, Queensland Australia
First discovered by the author at Swain's Reefs in the early 1980's this species has now been found at the Maldives and also at Moreton Bay, Queensland. It grows to 200 mm and has been found on rubble bottom around 20 to 30 metres. Little is known of its natural history and the species is still considered to be rare. It is hoped that its description will be published in the near future.( photo: Neville Coleman)
The are hundreds of unknowns and a thousand questions that require answering to increase our knowledge of sea stars. Although sea stars may look slow and uninteresting, they have amazing behaviour and bizarre natural histories and are unique amongst all the other sea life in our oceans.
I have done my bit to advance their knowledge in my book SEA STARS - Echinoderms of the Asia/Indo - Pacific, but there is still a long way to go.
but i can tell u they are reef safe and wont heart anything they will feed on left over food just as linckai star fish, and what i found is that they dont move alot they stay in the same spot for long
