Brittle stars have a symbiotic relationship with bacteria. The bacteria live on the brittle star's skin and help digest food for the brittle star. In return, the brittle star provides the bacteria with protection and a suitable environment to thrive.
The biggest threat for brittle stars is habitat destruction caused by activities such as bottom trawling, dredging, and pollution. These activities can disrupt their environment, destroy their food sources, and impact their ability to reproduce and thrive.
Brittle stars use their long, flexible arms to capture and subdue their prey. They wrap their arms around the prey to immobilize it, then use their tube feet to move the food towards their mouth located in the center of their body. The prey is then ingested and broken down by their digestive system.
Brittle stars have several natural predators, including fish, crabs, sea birds, and some marine mammals. They are also vulnerable to certain species of larger sea stars that may feed on them. Additionally, brittle stars may face competition for food and resources from other bottom-dwelling marine organisms.
