The red orange Linckia starfish arrived healthy and stayed active in my 80-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and doesn’t interfere with corals. Easy to maintain after a few weeks of acclimation. A great addition to a balanced reef setup.

I’ve had this starfish for about two months now. It’s vibrant in color and stays calm around other tank inhabitants. The size is within the medium range as listed. Slightly more active than I expected, but still very manageable.

Very happy with this purchase. The starfish has adapted well to my tank and looks beautiful. It’s one of the hardiest starfish I’ve kept. No issues with feeding or health so far.
