red brittle vs mini brittle

[thingfishdave]

I am upgrading from a 55 to a 120. The new tank is ready and there are a bunch of mini brittle stars that came with the new rock I bought from an established tank. I have a red brittle star thats as big as my hand in the old tank that I want to move over. Do you think there will be any troubles with him and the mini brittle stars?

I don't foresee a problem with it. The larger brittle star will compete for nutrients (detritus material) for the smaller brittle stars, but most tanks don't have to worry about having enough detritus.
