Ok , here is something alot of folks dont know. Most stars can not be exposed to air at all. When getting a star watch the lfs to make he does not expose it to air when you get it. When you get home make sure you dont expose him to air either. Still would like to see some other stars.
 
I'm just curious. If they can't be exposed to air why do I always see them at the beach, tide pools, piers, wharf, etc above water when the tide is low? Here where I live you can go to the local large aquarium exhibits (Monterey, San Francisco, etc) & they have "petting" tide pool areas where you can take them out & hold them.

Id guess because they find living easier in a natural habitat?

When I got him he was the size of a quarter now he's over 16" he's a giant
he comes out of water when he hangs off egg crate top so maybe it's just certain types
 
One that just came out after moving the rock to a new tank!
