You just answered your own question
Predatory stars are NOT considered reef safe, and most "reef safe" stars are harder to keep (with the exception of the non-fish-eating brittle stars) as we're not 100% positive really what exactly most of them eat. The general consensus is that most reef safe stars need at least 100+ lbs of liverock to sustain them as they are likely eating something from the LR.

Hope that helps
