I have always heard that they are not safe. Its just best to stay away from them if you have a reef.

I added a mushroom rock to a fish only with a cc star and it tool about 5 minutes for the star to find the rock and take out a mushroom.

Pretty much any of those larger, "knobby" seastars are not reef safe. They are, generally, quite hardy and easy to feed/care for.

krill silversides anything meaty you can stick under them. its kind of cool to watch them eat if they are on the glass

There not reef safe. I had one in my 30 reef for 9 months and he did fine but then one day I caught him on my clove polyps though I'd give him another chance then the next day caught him on some zoa's. BTW hes in my FOWLR tank now.

Not reefsafe but very hardy - had one in my 26 and he started eating my kenya trees, stuck him in a 5 gallon QT that had a couple fish battling ick in it and it survived the 4 or so copper treatments
