Hi bros,

Was staring at my fishtank and I realised I have been wondering how my starfishs eats for quite some time now but somehow never went to find an answer...

I can't see any mouth or anything else that resembles a mouth... does it even have a mouth?

Hm...

Do note that starfish do not have a brain, just a stomach.

Theoretically speaking, you can cut a starfish into 2 pieces and each part will grow into a whole star fish.

are u sure? if can i want to cut mine up!!

the thing in the middle is the mouth, those transparent thing u see in the pic is their stomach, starfishes actually invert out their stomach to digest and feed on the food

thats what i read some time ago, dunno how accurate

just my 2 cents

yeap me double up on decentkid's info. ;)
