The Biscuit Star (Fromia monilis), also known as the "Biscuit Starfish," is a species of sea star found in the Indo-Pacific region. It gets its name from its distinctive appearance, resembling a flat, round biscuit with a central disc and five arms that are broad and slightly tapered. Biscuit Stars are usually a reddish-brown colour with lighter markings, which helps them blend into their coral reef or sandy seabed habitats. They feed primarily on detritus and small organic particles and play a role in the health of marine ecosystems by contributing to the recycling of nutrients.
