Y50q #7 This is a beautiful Multi Leg Starfish floating display. This is the one you will receive and it is displayed in a floating shadowbox style frame. The starfish is approx 4" and the frame is approx. 61/2 x 6 1/2 x 2".
Species: Heliaster kubiniji is a species of starfish in the order Forcipulatida. It is commonly known as the gulf sun star, the common sun star or estrella de mar de golfo and it occurs in the intertidal zone of the Pacific coast of California, Mexico and Nicaragua
This is nicely showcased in a shadowbox type frame that suspends him in a clear elasticity film so both sides may be viewed unobstructed and also gives the specimen the illusion of "floating"! This can be opened but I advise against it as the specimens or the elasticity strip usually are damaged when you open the display. If the film in your display starts to stick together or gets some bubbles in it you can open the case very slowly so the film releases from both side and close again very slowly and the problem should be resolved. If the film gets touched or is in a hot area this can happen but it is a very easy fix also sometimes in shipping the specimen can shift a little in the display. If this happens please contact us and we will direct you on a quick and easy fix. Once the display has been opened returns are no longer accepted.
HANGING DISPLAYS: The floating displays all have removable bases so if you would like, just a piece or two of Velcro or command strip will mount these right to your wall without a problem. The case will keep him clean and safe for years to come!
