The Tile Starfish is found over sandy substrates, on rocks, and sometimes climbing among corals and other invertebrates. It constantly forages for micro-organisms and detritus to eat, so the aquarium should have ample amounts of live rock. It generally lives alone, but if the aquarium is large enough to support more than one, it will tolerate others of its own species.
It is recommended to supplement its diet with small pieces of shrimp, mussel, or flaked food.
