Im trying to decide what to put in my 115gal. reef aquarium and I think I want a starfish. Which would be a reef safe if any?

Serpants are very cool. They can be aggressive in smaller tanks so with a 115 you should be safe.

There are several different colors of linkia starfish. Blue is the most common it seems.

Have a non spiny sea serpent. Cool little critter! At first I was totally freaked thinking he was going to eat my skunk shrimp. I posted and got a lot of great responses. Here is what I found out:
-the green ones can go south and eat things...
-keep the star well fed with shrimp or frozen formula etc. (You will know if the star is hungry if he is out during the day.)
-the serpent stars are easy keepers and reef safe while linkias aren't
Hope this helps.
