theyre reef safe, i got one. however they are EXTREMELY difficult to feed, they are very picky eaters and usually starve to death. the only thing they really do to upset a reef tank is crawl all over corals, besides that they filter feed. heres mine.

I've never seen a picture of a green one. It is just too beautiful! I wish every bit of luck to you. I have wanted to have one ever since I wrote a 96 page paper on crinoids for a paleozoology course many, many years ago. Maybe your success will make my dream come true some day in the future. :joy: (This is a green with envy smiley.)

i got the green with yellow tips, and they have been in the display tank at my lfs for a while now, he also had a blue with yellpw tips which is beautiful too. i learned about their feeding habits after i bought it. if i do see deterioration, im going to take it back. i think they survive better there. in the mean time i make my own food for it.

Please don't. It will not survive. They should not even be collected and if hobbiests keep buying them then they will continue to be collected.
