I brought a starfish from a lfs they just called a bahama starfish the best way to descide how is looks it has short arms wide body between 6-7" wide it's dark orange w/red spolteces it has spike-like knobs all over.It seemd to behave much like a cc star I feed it when it comes to the top.I feed it krill,brine and chopped sliversides I think it might eat alage too.I was just wondering if anybody else has a bahama starfish are,if it's also called by a different common name I also like to get more info on it if i could It's a very cool starfish i hope it lives for awhile any more info on it wou;d be great are,does anyone else on here on this starfish :) Thanks

I ordered a green bahama star from this site about a year ago. A couple of months later I noticed they were no longer offered. While checking florida collection rules, the green bahama stars could no longer be collected from the wild.
Unlike your star, it was a solid medium green But seemed to have a similiar body shape. I feed it a piece of shrimp per week. I also removed it when it ate my pulsing xenia. It also attacked the turbo shales but they seemed to always excape.
