Brittle Star?

[crazyforcordoras]

I was inspecting a small chunk of live rock in my nano reef and I found a hole. I toke a small pair of tweezers and stuck them in it. I found a brittle star. It is probably like an inch long. One or two of its legs are missing. Will these grow back? If they would that would be cool because getting a free small brittle star is better than paying $8.00 for one! It is really cute too. On the piece of rock is two mushrooms! The rock is only a few inches long. I've read about other stars regenerating legs, but I wasn't sure about brittle stars.

It's on this page. I googled. Wetwebmedia.com brittle star, then I selected an FAQ section and had it highlight regenerate for me. took me 3 minutes to find it.

Just trying to help others find resources so I detailed your confirmation with how I did it
