serpent star question

[daniella3d]

Get rid of it, as they grown larger they attack fish and are a pest.

I know someone who has 2 and they have started to eat small fish like clownfish. The 2 of them already ate a platinium clownfish, a black and white occ., and 2 ultra picasso. He can't even catch them because they are wicked fast and hide in the rockwork.

Leave that thing alone in your sump.

I keep my system well fed and checked my water to make sure they didn't die then ate them. Just confused because I don't want my other shrimp to be next even though that one lives in the same cave as the star and it would seem they are buddies? Any thoughts?

Thanks for all the info! It's in the sump as we speak
