The Blue Linckia Sea Star (\u003cem\u003eLinckia laevigata\u003c\/em\u003e) is one of the most visually striking invertebrates available to the serious reef keeper. Its vivid cobalt blue coloration is entirely natural — no selective breeding, no tricks — just one of the ocean's most remarkable displays. Genuinely rare in top condition, a healthy Blue Linckia is a trophy addition that commands attention the moment it enters your saltwater aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlue Linckia Stars are slow, deliberate movers that methodically patrol rockwork and open sand beds, making them endlessly captivating to observe. They can reach up to 12 inches across at full maturity, giving them impressive presence even in a larger reef tank. Because they are sensitive to water quality and acclimation, successfully keeping one long-term is a genuinely rewarding achievement — a true mark of a disciplined, experienced aquarist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQUICK STATS \u0026amp; CARE GUIDE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue Linckia Star, Blue Sea Star\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 4–6 inches (arm tip to arm tip)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Advanced (highly sensitive to salinity swings, oxygen levels, and copper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peaceful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Microorganisms, detritus, cyanobacteria, and organic film; supplements with mysis or marine pellets placed directly on the specimen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes (invert-safe; will not bother corals)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 72–78°F | Salinity 1.025–1.026 | pH 8.1–8.4 | Ammonia \u0026amp; Nitrite: 0 ppm | Nitrate: \u0026lt;5 ppm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHY BUY FROM THE CORAL BOUTIQUE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Blue Linckia Star at The Coral Boutique is ethically sourced, carefully quarantined, and fully acclimated before it ever leaves our facility — so you're receiving a conditioned, stable specimen, not a stressed one fresh off a boat.
