    Cool. Have seen the same behavior on crown of thorns starfish (i.e they curl up before turning right side up) What's the species of the starfish shown? it has so many arms!

    Our waters are deep but it's sheltered port. With the busy shipping traffic (one of the busiest portrs in the world), the waters never gonna get clear
