Granulated Sea Star

Choriaster granulatus

The Granulated Sea Star has naturally subby legs. These stars are moderately difficult to keep and must have stable water conditions. They will do best in an aquarium with little nitrate and phosphate and little to no fluctuation in salinity, pH and temperature. Temperatures from 76 to 80 degrees are best for this star.
