hello, I noticed these little red things coming from my starfish. Any idea what they are?

This is not my strong suit!

weird. No idea. I'll stick around to see what the others say..

I'm no sea-star expert, but I know that these guys can appear to be doing well while they're slowly dying inside. (Kinda like some people I know . . . ) They can look great until suddenly one day they begin to disintegrate.

I hope that's not what I'm seeing . . .

That rock looks very clean, though the rock in the background looks far more mature. Sea-stars seem to do better in aquaria that've been established for a while. How old is the tank he's in?

Any ammonia, nitrite, high nitrates?

I don't know much about regular starfish.

I did some research, they are eggs that have been released!
