Wow... that's ready for my nano tank :) Correct me if I'm wrong, but a starfish is not a fish, but a sea star right?

I can't for the life of me find a picture of it, but if you guys have ever seen a Crown of Thorns (?) star those things are HUGE.

Don't those multi multi armed sunstars(?) off our coast get bigger?

Note the sizeable brain colony to its left for comparison.

Yeah well mine is bigger :p.

I at least have the nads to show size reference.....apparently a rather portly human being :D Your pic could be a course gravel sand bed for all I know....

The stars here, off the coast, are WAY bigger than those
I've seen Cali stars close to 3.5-4' across

Go scuba in wreck alley, you'll see TONS

Crown of thorns are big and nasty!!! Saw them while diving leaving a white trail behind them on huge acro colonies. Stabbed a couple for hurting the corals :)
