The Granulated Sea Star (Choriaster granulatus) looks like a squishy, lumpy pillow, but it's actually a vital cleaner of the coral reef. Why did it evolve this bizarre, blob-like shape? This is the full life cycle of the ocean's most huggable-looking starfish.
Despite its soft appearance, the Granulated Sea Star is a resilient scavenger. Its unique, granulated skin and chubby arms are perfectly adapted for clinging to corals and consuming detritus, algae, and even dead animals, playing a crucial role in reef health.
