Description
Rainbow Biscuit Starfish
The Basket Star, a fascinating marine invertebrate, belongs to the phylum Echinodermata and is known for its distinctive appearance and behaviour. This echinoderm is an excellent choice for aquarists looking to add an unusual and captivating species to their saltwater aquarium.
Characterised by a hard, spiny covering or skin, Basket Stars are notable for their intricate network of branching arms. These arms are not only visually striking but also functional, as they are used by the Basket Star to capture plankton and small particles of food in the water. Ideal for established marine aquariums with stable water conditions, Basket Stars are typically found in deep sea environments but can adapt to life in captivity. They offer a glimpse into the diverse and complex world of marine life, making them a fascinating addition to any marine aquarium.
