hello guys i need desprate help with my starfish, this morning i noticed it next to my condellactic anemone and the starfish is like missing it's inner area but it's still alive, what can i do to save it?
 
Hmmm, how long have you had the starfish? How did you acclimate the starfish? If it's missing it's body?? What are the legs attatched to?
 
ok see what happened is that i just got a chondellactic anemone and when i saw that the starfish was hurt it was right next to the anemone. i figured the anemone did the damage, the damage was done in between it's legs more on the body of it and i've had this starfish for over a year. i fed it this morning and it ate fine even though it was hurt. what do i do to save it or what can i do?
 
Keep the water clean and if it doesn't get infected it should heal up on it's own. Regenerative powers of starfish are tremendous ;)
