[quote author=birdlady link=board=General;num=1111163793;start=0#3 date=03/19/05 at 10:04:23]Stars are dicey propositions. *Supposedly the only 'reef safe' are the BLACK brittle stars,(and some disagree with that even) but, as noted above, people have success with others not eating their livestock. *I would stay away from any colored brittle or serpent stars. *Definitely have a poor track record for eating fish, snails, bivalves, etc.

If you do a search, I did a brittle star post a year or so back. *I totally disagree with BL, there's plenty of good starfish, brittle stars and serpeant stars. *The bad serpeant stars come from the south pacific, and are usually green, yellow, red or orange BUT they look nothing like or even remotely act like a deep water red serpeant from the atlantic that wouldn't harm a single reef inhabitant. *There's plenty of good brittle stars out there, look for my post, or wait for me to compile a new one to sticky
