Common name: Echinasteridae

Echinasteridae is a family of sea stars commonly found in tropical and subtropical regions. Members of this family, such as Echinaster (Echinaster) sepositus, are known for their vibrant colors and are popular in the reefkeeping hobby for their ornamental value. They are generally considered reef-safe and can contribute to the clean-up crew by consuming detritus. However, they require stable water conditions and should be kept in systems with ample live rock for grazing. It's important to ensure they have enough food, as they can starve if the tank is too clean.
