Our curated selection includes various starfish species, each with distinct characteristics and care requirements. Whether you're interested in the vibrant colors of the Linckia species or the sand-sifting habits of the Archaster typicus, we provide detailed information to help you choose the perfect starfish for your setup.

Optimal Care for a Thriving Habitat

To ensure the well-being of your starfish, it's essential to maintain stable water conditions. Regular water changes, appropriate salinity, and a well-established tank environment are crucial. Some species may require supplemental feeding, especially in newer aquariums.

Unique Adaptations and Behaviors

Starfish are remarkable for their regenerative abilities, capable of regrowing lost limbs over time. They lack a central brain and instead use a decentralized nerve net to coordinate movements. Their feeding mechanisms are equally fascinating, with some species able to extrude their stomachs to digest food externally.
