I found this guy in one of the containers that i got from a swap today, I'm pretty sure he's a starfish most likely a serpent star.....he's red and white/ possibly yellow.......im keeping him in a container as of right now......should i toss him in or ditch him???

It does look like a serpent to me, I can't see any bristles on him.

You can toss him in the tank, part of CUC.

He looks like he has hairy arms when u get close up 2 him.......is that what makes him a brittle/serpent?

They're two different species; bristle or serpent.

His body shape is what gives him away as either or and I said serpent because I couldn't see any obvious bristles.

I can't post pictures or link easily to compare at the moment but if you do a quick google search you should be able to easily tell whether he's a bristle or serpent.

Either can make a good part of CUC. They do usually stay hidden an you'll usually just see their arms come out of the rock.
