Browsing online, I've come across these critters...

I'm guessing many different species are taken out of the ocean and given this label. They're similar to the Starfish we often find in tide pools. Naturally, we would probably all like one. However, like many starfish I have a sneaking suspicion that these guys will slowly starve to death like so many other starfish in the trade.
I'm asking because I haven't seen much data on these guys, and it never hurts to get more information about 'em. Do they fall into the "leave it in the ocean" category?
