devilishbabe14 Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 I just bought some live rock and just found that i have a hitchhiker starfish. It's about the size of a dime total and is white. looks much like a sand sifting star. my friend said that they would not grow much larger than a quarter and were very good cleaners and breed fast. does anyone know what they are or if this is true? thanks for any help.

devilishbabe14 Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 in whatever program you edit your pictures and whatnot click save as and there should be a heading like quality or something like that and click best for web and it changes them to where you can post them. Link to comment
devilishbabe14 Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 so do they stay small? Link to comment
demon2 Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 yes normaly the never get bigger that a dime. and it will multiply by splitting in 2. forgot wut thats called i think its fission. Link to comment
devilishbabe14 Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 thanks, thats cool. Do serpent sea stars also multiply by splitting in two? Link to comment
demon2 Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 you mean mini serpent right? not sure but i dont think so. Link to comment
devilishbabe14 Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 yea i didnt think so either but something crazy is going on with my serpent sea star. which is totally separate from and in a different tank from this little white guy i posted about. it almost looks like he's splitting in two, i think he may just be stressed by my fish or crabs. hoping he will get better.
