serpernt star help!!!

[monsterm]

Hi everyone, I need some help. I have a 3 month old 14 gal biocube. A month ago I purchased a algae attack pack that included a small serpent star. He was doing fine for a while untill I added my two clowns a week ago. One morning when feeding the fish I noticed the legs of the starfish sticking out of the lower intake

. If anyone is familiar with this type of tank, you know that there is no way to open this area of the tank

. I have tried everything from luring him out with food to trying to pull him out, but he just will not budge. I don't know if he is stuck of if he has made that area his home. I don't want him to out grow holes or worse die and cause the tank to crash

. Can someone please help

It shouldn't have any problems getting back and forth. They are very well suited to scooting through tiny holes and such. You can try getting a long handled really small net and fishing it out with that. It will probably come out on its own once it runs out of food in there though.
