well the live rock come with a big brittleworm and a starfish, the question is to ID the starfish and is this brittleworm dangerous to anemone or fish?

Chocolate chip starfish and fireworm. Both are predatory though they pose most risk to sessile inverts and coral.
 
why not? I know that the brittleworm is dangerous but he eat leftovers what can he do? and what can do the starfish, she is like two inch
 
Oh and be very careful with the worm. It is called a fireworm because if you get stuck by those bristles it will feel like your arm is on fire. Make the standard bristle worms feel petting like a fluffy puppy.
 
That worm actually eats corals so will the starfish. If you are doing large active fish only the star will be fine. Don't let the small size fool you they get large.
 
thanks a lot i really don't know that. I will be moving them to another aquarium. Can they be keep with anemone and clownfish?
 
Yes as long as they are not slow fish but that worm is likely to starve without coral to eat.
