I was told that the Blue Starfish was easy to take care of. After bringing it home I found a small white spot, I also found a small shell attached to it. Someone told me to take it off with a pair of twezers. I have been reading about it for the last two days, and have found out they are not for unexper. keepers, which I am, and that the parasite shouldnt be removed. Now the spot where the parasite was its a sore that is turning white. It doesnt look good. the starfish looks fine, but what Im reading, its usually a 2 week decline down hill until death. Any sugg. on what to do??? Different articles I read give me mixed signals on there care. Some say very easy, no problems, other say best left on the reef.
