Default Hungry Chocalte chip star

I am wondering if it is ok to introduce clams into a tank with a rather hungry Chocalte Chip Starfish?

NO NO NO. My choc chip went after a snail and a sand sifting star (who now i think will die)so i moved him out of main tank to in sump refugium...save your money don't let him get after your clams...if u have the room move him if not see if a store will give you store credit in your area!!

Chocolate chip stars are not reef safe. They WILL kill your corals.
