any info on brittle stars
 

i was curious on your experiences with these guys being reef safe or fish safe for that matter. any info would be cool

I have a green death BS.....most say it isn't safe but I have had mine about 3 yrs with no deaths I can attribute to it. Its about 20 inches tip to tip and the disk is about 2 - 2.5 inches. I also feed him a krill or 2 every night.

The green ones are not reef safe. Other varieties are.

They can get fairly large. Here's a nighttime picture of one I have that is part of my cleanup crew (no target feeding). I also have a Serpent Brittlestar. It is more secretive only coming out at night.
