Received the starfish in excellent condition. The color is vibrant and it has been active in the tank for two weeks. It blends well with the reef setup and doesn’t seem to cause any issues with other inhabitants. Very satisfied with the purchase.

The Red Orange Linckia is a stunning addition to my 75-gallon reef tank. It moves gracefully and looks natural. The color is true to the description and the starfish appears healthy and active.

It arrived quickly and looked well-packaged. The size is slightly smaller than expected, but still impressive. It has settled into the rockwork and seems to be adjusting well. Minor concern about the initial handling, but overall positive experience.
