Nice sized star. Healthy looking and moves around quite a lot. I made sure to only have one and allowed my sand bed to mature and fill with food before getting one. They have a tendency to clean all the food and die of starvation if you try and add to a new system. He/She buries itself just below the surface and slides back and forth cleaning the detritus and keeping the sand stirred up. |
