That particular type of brittle star is known to eat fish...

Ophiarachna incrassata does not mix well with fish, as bertoni says.

I had one just orange. I lost a number of smaller fish to it before taking it back to the LFS.... A couple of yellowtailed damsels I didnt feel too bad about losing among them
