{"product_id":"red-fromia-sea-star","title":"Red Fromia Sea Star","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Invertebrate Red Fromia Sea Star (Fromia milleporella) is a peaceful species that is reef-safe, admired for its vibrant red coloration, striking star-shaped form, intricate surface patterns, and graceful movement across live rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMales typically resemble females in size and appearance, showing no significant external differences, though they may display slightly more active foraging behavior, while females\/juveniles are often smaller and may exhibit slightly paler coloration until they mature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey reach about 5–6 inches in diameter and should be housed in aquariums of at least 30 gallons. Provide ample live rock for grazing, stable sandbed, and hiding spots to allow natural foraging behavior and reduce stress. Maintain stable water parameters (salinity ~1.020–1.025, temp ~72–79°F, pH ~8.1–8.4) and ensure excellent water quality, as this species is sensitive to fluctuations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiet should consist of natural biofilm, detritus, algae, and small invertebrates found on live rock; supplemental feeding with mysis shrimp or finely chopped seafood can be offered occasionally. With proper care, this sea star makes a beautiful and peaceful addition to any reef aquarium, contributing both aesthetic appeal and ecological balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInternational Aquatics Quarantine \u0026amp; Guarantee: All fish are checked by marine vets, given a formalin bath, and held for 14 days in copper-treated systems.
