Okay, I'm in the process of cleaning my tank (you'll probably notice the aptasia and bubble algae) :sad1: but as i was removing rocks/transfering corals i noticed a serpent sea star making his/her way across the bottom of my tank. so i took a quick picture, as i do not remember ever adding one to my tank and it just looks kind of....well, odd to me. thank you in advance for your help :)

That is by far the coolest, most beautiful serpent star i have seen! :eek1:
I hope mine starts to color up a bit more like that

yeah i'm gonna def. keep him/her... only thing that i can think is that it was a hitch hiker on a pc. of coral i got, I now faintly remember getting a serpent star like 3-4 years ago, but i'm not sure. and if i did he's a good hider, either way he is i should say...thank you both for the response! :)
