Brittle Star with pistol shrimp?

[starfish7]

I have a 75 gal. reek tank with a lot of critters in it including 2 brittle stars and a serpent star. They have been in the tank almost 6 years and are quite large. I want to add a yellow watchman goby and a candy stripe pistol shrimp. Are the sea stars likely to eat the pistol shrimp? Will an emerald crab cause problems? Thanks for any help.

I too have 2 brittle stars, and a serpant star along with 2 pistol shrimps of different species. No problems here at all. The Caribbean pistol has quite an attitude, and I would dare anything to try and eat him.

the sea stars should be more worried about the pistol shrimp than the other way around.
I have 2 pistols and a few serpant stars....when the star gets a leg too close to the pistol's cave, the shrimp snaps at it and the star moves away quickly.
