Description
Serpent starfish are opportunistic scavengers. This means they eat almost anything they find or catch. This voracious carnivore can make quick work of any uneaten meaty food it finds fallen throughout your aquarium. Serpent's stars are a great addition to any clean up crew as they will scour the rocks and sand bottom with their arms extended trying to catch any uneaten meaty foods that might be loose the water column or on the substrate. They are great at cleaning up after feeding often coming out to feed during. The Serpent Starfish does well in an aquarium if provided with multiple hiding places and plenty of room to roam. The starfish is nocturnal but will eventually learn to come out during the day to eat.
Serpent Starfish are also known as Brittle Starfish, Caribbean Serpent Sea Star, and Tiger Serpent Starfish.
