Brittle Sea Star and Anemone?

[Aaron-A2]

Will there be compatibility issues between a brittle sea star and bubble tips?

No. Nice tank and star

+1 I've never heard of there being an issue between those.

Only common invert issues i have heard of with anemones is shrimp or crabs trying to steal food from one and becoming a meal instead.

Thanks all!

Gorgeous starfish!

And the rest of the tank too!

That central disk is kind of big already.

Keep a count of the fish and keep the star fish fed really well and you should have no problems.

I was under the impression red brittle stars were fish safe? Only the green/ olive ones caused problems, right?

Better to be safe than sorry!

True enough.

I believe they are fish safe.
But I also have small serpent starfish and larger fish.

Your size ratios are not in your favor.

The green serpent starfish will hump up and provide a nice little cave for a small fish.
Then later crush the fish and eat it.

Your beautiful red star has the size advantage to do the same thing.

Our red serpent starfish is nearly identical, but just 5/8" on the central disk.

I would keep it well fed.

Lol, we have 8 various serpents. The red and a purple are the biggest.
No worries yet but I always keep it in mind.
I make sure some food falls to the bottom so they are all fed.
