Wow today I was looking in our tank when I spotted something very peculiar. Our black sea urchin was carrying a friend. :eek:Upon looking closer I realized it was a type of brittle star/serpent star but I am not sure exactly which one it might be? He is so tiny right now but it looks as if riding on the sea urchin is helping him get food and not to mention the added protection...no one even comes near the sea urchin. Could someone take a look at the pictures I have below and help identify this little guy. His legs are so long I can not imagine how big he might be eventually...whoa! :eek2::) He has a white center spot in the middl eof his body, I dont know if this is because he is young or a distinguishing characteristic associated with the species of serpent star it might be??? Any help would be appreciated! Thanx in advance for the help guys!:wavehand:
