The Cushion Star is a unique and robust starfish with a plump, pillow-like body and bold patterns. While it’s an interesting and hardy species, it is not reef safe as it can prey on corals and other invertebrates. Best suited for species-only or fish-only marine tanks, this starfish makes a fascinating addition but requires careful tank selection.
