Sea stars live in salt water and are found in all of the world's oceans, from warm, tropical waters to the cold seafloor. Sea stars are mostly carnivorous and prey on mollusks—including clams, mussels and oysters—which they pry open with their suction-cupped feet.
Where does a starfish live?
Starfish species inhabit all of the world's oceans. Habitats range from tropical coral reefs, rocky shores, tidal pools, mud, and sand to kelp forests, seagrass meadows and the deep-sea floor down to at least 6,000 m (20,000 ft). The greatest diversity of species occurs in coastal areas.
Where is the best place to find starfish?
The best place to find starfish is on a rocky beach that has lots of tide pools. At low tide, these rocky enclosures become microcosms of life, harboring everything from stranded hermit crabs to starfish hiding under rocks.
