I bought this starfish a couple of weeks ago. They guy at the store said it was a chocolate chip. I bought it for $15, thinking I was getting a steal. Haha. I tried to look it up when I got home, but haven't been able to find any black starfish on the internet. Anyone know what it is?
 
Need help identifying this starfish.

It does look like a chocolate chip. They range in colors depending on their demographic origin
 
Threads merged. Looks like what stores call "common starfish". The same behavior as CC stars- not reef safe, eat meaty foods..etc.
