We call him Lucky . . .

Our starfish has had a rough time of his first 6 months in the tank.

He lost 2 legs when he figured out what the vortechs were.
He lost 1 leg when a maricultured coral was pushed on him by the sea urchin.
Now with his legs growing back, he has the indiginity of being stuck (well probably not stuck but been there for a day and a half) with the tangs picking at him because they think he is the new colored food.

We thought we would share before we let him out.

Sounds like he's suicidal.

Maybe, I hadn't thought about that. He does like to wave his arms out of the water.

Maybe you should start him on Prozac.
