They sometimes eat the tube feet of other echinoderms, I think, but the basic diet is live starfish.

I have one that I have seen 3 different times eating Krill shrimp. I have been trying to get it on film but he seems to hide everytime I go and get the camera.

All Gnathophyllids eat echinoderms. Hymenocera or harlequin shrimp specialize in starfish.
