got a picture? Brittles do commonly live in holes in LR, so it is feasable that it is in fact a brittle.

Is it a big one, or is it a mini star?
If it is a mini, most likely it is a good guy, and you probably have more than one.

Green Brittle stars are bad, but from your description, it's hard to tell what you have.
