Good looking, hardy and utilitarian, a Sand Sifting
Star,
Archaster typicus
Müller & Troschel, 1840. As with dealing with all sizable
burrowing animals, make sure your rocky habitat is securely placed on
the bottom of the tank (not the substrate). And beware re stocking these
subterranean sifters... they are rapacious feeders on all interstitial
fauna... denuding systems of only hundreds of gallons. NOT to be used in
reef systems where you want to have good populations of these beneficial
organisms. |
