Starfish question and other inverts
My kids went to the beach today with grandma and found a starfish, hermit crab and a bunch of very small shrimp. I was wondering if it was okay to add them to my display tank.
The star is a dark brown on top and a bright orange on the bottom and is probably 3" from end to end. The hermit is white and looks to be in a snail shell. As for the shrimp, I think they will be fish food unless they hide in my live rock right away. Any help would be nice. Thanks |

Here is what he looks like. Any clue on what he is and if he is reef safe?

he looks like some sort of sand sifting star but when in doubt keep him out of your tank

Thats what I was thinking but wasn't 100% sure. I can't seem to find any info on him to find out his max size, diet, reef safe, etc..
