YeetPopper Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) I have attached an image from my phone (sorry) of what appears to be a brittle star arm poking out of my live rock. It is in the top right cave, on the bottom sticking out. Let me know if you need more pictures. I honestly find the thing kind of creepy but if it turns out to be a brittle star, I might keep it.

jolt Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 It kind of looks like it, but a closer pic would help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jolt Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Does it move? My brittle stars kind of slowly wave their arms over time. And then the arm won't be there anymore after a while since they move around a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over time another arm stuck out and they change positions every time I look at them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sascha D. Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 It looks like a star to me. I don't know what else it could be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
