Does Killer the Brittle Star Have a Chance?

0

Hello, I tried posting on the forum only to have it tell me (no matter how many times I logged in) that I was a guest and couldn’t. Today while beach combing with my daughter I found a plain brown Brittle Star. He was out of the water for sometime (about 40 feet from the shoreline), on his back looking dead (so I thought till I saw a slight movement in one leg). To make a long story short, Killer is now in a small tank with sea water and some sand we picked up. He has perked up noticeably and is much stronger than when I found him and has even gone after the bits of clam stuck in the shells we found and explored his new ‘tank’. A great improvement over a slight leg twitch on the beach.
