The Grandaddy of all Starfish

[EllieSuz]

The other day when I was digging around in my picture file to come up with something to play our photo game, I came across this one from the Monterey Bay Aquarium:

It was a couple of feet across and I think the sign said eleven years old. Imagine how long you could feed a Harlequin Shrimp on this baby!

the gigantica maximus brittle star. lol. got him from Rick, a fellow reefer....he is the most gorgeous seafoam green color...he's amazing. his center is about 2.5 inches round and the tentacles are at least 13-15" long.
