Will a Bristle star hurt my fish

[Spechty37]

Hello I just bought a lot of live rock from a guy on Craigslist a week or so ago when I went to get it he said there was a big star fish in with the rock and he would apriciate if I took it so I did the problem is he is huge he's probably 20" across when he's stretched out he's the only thing in the tank right now. My question is I have two clowns that are ready to come out of the QT tank will this star hurt my clowns or any other fish I put in there here's a picture of him

That thing is huge. Why would you want to keep that. Yuk!!! Giving me the heebie geebies.

 

[Spechty37]

I just don't know what to do with it lol

 

[Mebbid]

Those are awesome! Go ahead and keep it. They are reef safe scavengers.

Is he green? I can't tell from the picture.

I would keep it. Good for the reef. Like was ask is it green? Their the only ones that eat fish. Google green star serpent or green brittle star.

 

[Spechty37]

No he is not green he is like a brownish redish color just very big lol if he's harmless I will keep him thank you
