You could put your starfish in the sump and get a harlequin shrimp. I know mine is eating my mini brittlestars faster then the asterina stars that I want him to eat.

Bongo shrimp $70 at J&L This hobby is getting more expensive and RIDICULOUS Harlequin is cheaper but only eats starfish, not brittle or serpent star, that was quoted by a person work at J&L.
