The Blue Linckia Sea Star is certain to be the shining star for the dedicated reef aquarium enthusiast.

The unusual blue color of this sea star is truly remarkable and this standout color makes the Blue Linckia Sea Star a beautiful focal point.

Its bright blue body may sometimes be embellished with red or purplish spots.

The Blue Linckia Sea Star is also known as the Comet Sea Star, Blue Sea Star, or Blue Starfish.

Level of Care: Moderate


Reef Compatibility:Very good


These Stars feed on algae found on aquarium glass, rockwork, and substrate.

They are completely reef safe and are a must have for anyone with either a fish-only or reef tank.


Diet:

If introduced to a large well established aquarium, very little needs to be done to supplement Linckias. The bacterial film that comprises the mainstay of the Linckias diet usually appears in abundance in well established and seasoned aquariums.

Notes:

Starfish are intolerant of sudden changes in oxygen levels, salinity and pH of the water, and cannot tolerate copper-based medications. Extra care and time should be taken whenever acclimating this animal.The drip acclimation method is highly recommended for all Sea Stars due to their intolerability to changes in water chemistry. Linckia Starfish must never receive exposure to air during acclimation.


Level of Care: Moderate


Reef Compatibility:Very good


Purchase Size: Small: 2" to 3"; Medium: 3" to 4"; Large: 4" to 6"
