Brittle stars will eat anenomes as well. At least my green
one does, especially if they aren't doing too well.

Well, that is the main purpose of "cleaning crew"
animals to eat dead and dying tank mates.

True, although mine has also sank it's 'teeth' right into quite healthy
ones as well. I wouldn't exactly call a 15 year old 20" (from armtip to
armtip) green brittle star typical of the type of cleaning crew that most
want to keep in their reef tanks. Which is why I don't keep it in the main
tank anymore. But that's just my own experience talking.
