Valuable Information Gleaned on Captive Linckia Starfish Care From Community Survey
Guest Writer1 day ago
The wait is over, and the numbers are in; it’s time to explore our findings from the Linckia data collection survey!
We received 16 submissions, each with valuable information for this article. I want to extend a massive thank you to everyone who took the time to fill out the form, and especially to those of you who went above and beyond with photos (shown in the article!) and in-depth info.
Let’s dig in.
First, according to our data, a generalized lifespan of approximately 1.5 to 2 years seems to be the limit, though a few reefers have reported that they live up to 5 years and counting. Most responses say that their current stars are still alive but have lost other stars around the same age. This aligns well with another online consensus that the star has enough ‘fat reserves’ to survive a year or two before it burns out.
For more information, please go to the whole article, located here (which is itself a summary which ends in a link to more data):
