Horned starfish are fairly easy to maintain and will eat meaty foods that are provided. They're considered reef safe with caution as they have been known to feed on corals, feeding on corals is probably triggered when a coral is damaged or dying but it cannot be completely ruled out. Noxious soft corals like leathers and mushrooms should be fine.Â
