has the star fish been died or bleached? if so, its not safe for the crabs to eat. even if it isn't, I would take it out and boil it before putting it back in the tank.

whoa... that's kinda funny... but then again, as Caroline said, if it is bleached, it is bad for the crabs to eat...

Little word of advise... don't put anything that has been treated with chemicals into your crabitat.

Including sand-dollars that have been bleached... i know people say sand-dollars are good for hermit crabs to eat, but people don't know a lot of them are bleached, and can kill your crabbies.

What i personally do, is i use Cuddle-Bone (that birds eat) and i crush it, and sprinkle it on there food.
