Brittle Stars are one of the hobby's best detritus eaters and sand aerators. Their ability to get into nooks and crannies allows them to consume much of the food and fish waste that accumulates there. Their legs are covered in small spines that they use to aid in finding food. These spines will not harm you but still always use caution when handling. Add these into an aquarium with plenty of live rock to hide in during the day, and they will come out at night to do clean up. Even though these sea stars are excellent scavengers, their diet should be supplemented with finely chopped meaty items.

ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
If we need to contact you for any reason about your order, shipping of your package may be affected. Once your order is placed, you will receive a confirmation email with your order summary. Orders are subject to verification of payment information by phone or email. We ship for arrival to the customer Tuesday through Friday and Saturday for an extra charge where available.

My leopard gecko is impacted
The shell of my turtle broke and I can see the bone and blood the bone is also preventing the shell from going back in place
My leopard gecko has a brittle discolored toe! Her age is unknown and none of her other toes are like this. She eats normal and acts normal from what I know. I’m scared her toe might fall off! I don’t know what is wrong with her toe but if anyone knows what it possible could be please tell me! And if anyone knows a solution to this problem tell me please!
I read that Spanish dancer nudibranchs eat flat worms, but am unable to find more than one reference for this. do you have any insight into this?
My turtle shell is cracking red ear slider
My red eared sliders shell is discolored has hard/rough spots, and it’s not smooth. I don’t know if it’s she’ll rot or not. She also seems to be shedding excessively on her body, but never her shell.
patternless leopard gecko body compulsion waves contracting and growling
Brazilian rainbow boa. 5 months old. Eating regularly. Humidity maintained above 85 percent. The snake has developed white blisters on its back and head. One looks substantial, the other looks to have just started. I've had the snake for 5 weeks and she did her first shed 3 days ago. It came off in one piece and looked fine to me. She got a new water bowl 7 days ago and has taken to hiding under it. I can't afford a vet for another 6 days but I've read she needs immediate care. Please help :(
My pet lizard is not eating and looks as if her face is shedding, and will not open. leopard gecko
Black worm with yellow or orange stripes and I don't know what it is
WHat kind of snake did my cat kill? My cat brought back a dead baby snake it isn’t like any snake native to England it was black with red spots that look like daimond shape I can’t find anything online
Is this shell rot? If so what can we do to treat it (until we can get her to a vet)? Do note that this is what her shell looks like coming right out of the water. None of it feels like it divots into the shell and none of it is soft. Shes active and eating regularly.
