I’ve had my Blue Linckia for six months now. It’s been very calm and doesn’t interfere with other corals. The tank is 120 gallons and has been stable. Only thing to note is it needs a well-established system and consistent water parameters.

This starfish is a beautiful addition to my reef tank. I’m an expert aquarist and it’s adapted well. I monitor water quality closely and it hasn’t shown any signs of stress.

After careful research, I decided to add this Linckia. It’s active but not aggressive. The initial size was small, but it’s growing steadily. I keep a close eye on water chemistry and it’s thriving.
