Genus
Common name: Sea Star
Scientific name: Tosia
Tosia is a genus of sea stars found in the Indo-Pacific region, known for their distinctive shapes and vibrant colors. They are relatively small and can be a fascinating addition to a reef aquarium. Tosia species are generally hardy but require stable water conditions and plenty of live rock for grazing. They are omnivorous, feeding on detritus, small invertebrates, and sometimes coral polyps, so they should be monitored in a reef tank to ensure they don't harm desirable invertebrates or corals.
