Marble Starfish (Fromia sp.)

Overview:
The Marble Starfish is a beautifully patterned starfish, often showing marbled or mottled coloration in shades of red, orange, or burgundy. Peaceful and reef-safe, it makes an elegant and functional addition to a marine aquarium.

Origin:
Native to the Indo-Pacific, typically found on coral reefs and rocky substrates.

Feeding:
Feeds on biofilm, detritus, and small organic matter found on live rock. May accept supplemental feeding of finely chopped meaty foods or algae-based diets if natural food is limited.

Tank Mates:
Excellent for reef aquariums. Safe with corals, fish, and most invertebrates. Avoid housing with aggressive predators (puffers, large wrasses, triggers) that may nip at starfish.

Aggression:
Completely peaceful and non-aggressive.

Experience Level:
Intermediate. Requires a mature, stable aquarium with plenty of live rock for grazing. Sensitive to rapid changes in water chemistry.

Water Parameters:

• Temperature: 72–78°F (22–25.5°C)
• pH: 8.1–8.4
• Salinity: 1.023–1.025
• dKH: 8–12
