P.S. sorry about the hair dryer scare. You couldn't have known that I'm not an idiot (g).

I think they were referring to the Atlantic Green brittle/ serpent star. This large star will gladly seek out fish as prey. I know a few people who keep them very well fed, but I wouldnt keep them at all, like trying to keep damsels and lions in the same tank.

- Do you mean serpent stars ate your fish? I have 2 in my 125 gal reef tank (one emerald and one brown/red) and they seem pretty shy and peaceful. At least I'm not missing any fish.... I feed them pellets which they do gobble up, but as far as I can see, they are (so far) pretty harmless (and interesting). Each has legs about 5 or 6 inches long (measuring from the body outward). Do I have something to worry about when/if they grow even bigger?
