A few brittle star questions

[Mtwreef]

I know this is a brittle star I was just wondering what kind he is if there is any difference in them and how big can they get ? Thank you
He is a dark green

I believe those are more typically called serpent stars; Saltwater Aquarium Invertebrates for Marine Reef Aquariums: Serpent Sea Star, Fancy Tiger Striped It is a bit hard to tell them all apart though =X I think brittle star and serpent are used interchanging. I know they can get big, I think yours is either at full size or close to it.

Yes, Green Brittle Star. Be careful, they can be fish eaters.

Yeah it's looking on the large size...I think it's time to banish it to your sump or refugium if you have one...
