blue linkia starfish

LFS is selling them...they look real nice...are said to be hardy and reef safe.
Anybody know anything about them?

They had about 6...I dont know how long they are in store..seem to sell pretty quick. I know you need to acclimate for a long time by slowly adding your tank water over 3-4 hr period.
I have 70g tank with 125 lbs of LR over 1 year...2 250w 6500k MH 2 110w VHO actinic..lots of different corals

I have had one for about 8 months now. It seems to be quite hardy. They are great and reef safe. Get one. Bear in mind that they do get large.

I have a quick question for anyone who's kept one, how are they with the live rock? Are they clumsy and move around the rock making it fall? Or are they pretty gentle with it. I ask because I have a lot of LR and its stacked on top of each other. It's sturdy but still can be knocked over. I want to get a blue linkia but not if they move everything around. Thanks.

Yes, I would agree. It moves about over rocks and even my mushroom colonies, but very gently. No damages occur. It's incredible how graceful this beauty can be.
