Like most Fromia starfish, the Marbled Orange Star will do best in a mature aquarium system with well established Live Rock. It will consume sponges and small sessile animals. Care must be taken to maintain a constant salinity level; during acclimation a slow, drip is best to adapt the star to the aquarium water. Harmless to nearly all fish and other invertebrates.
