This starfish is a stunning addition to my 100-gallon reef tank. The color and texture are vivid and detailed. It has been thriving for over six months with no signs of stress. The branching arms are clearly visible and very attractive.

I was impressed by the size and quality. At 7 inches, it’s one of the largest specimens I’ve seen. It’s peaceful and doesn’t interfere with other tank inhabitants. The granular texture is very well preserved.

It looks beautiful in the tank. I’ve had it for three months now and it’s doing well. The water parameters are stable and it seems to adapt well to the flow. A bit of maintenance is needed for the substrate, but overall it’s a great choice.
