Green brittle star ???

I picked up this guy earlier today, I've been eyeing them for a long time now. I did check the books and do homework.

This guy is 4/5 inches fairly small I would think.

Would i need to worry about my smaller 2 inch clowns and six line wrasse, or would he do better in my 65gallon tank with larger maroon clowns, melanurus wrasse and tomini tang?

Any thoughts on green brittle such as how fast do they grow, issues with them, or experiences good and bad?

Hopefully I don't have to watch them unless it gets massive like the book said 20 inches

I've never personally seen them eat a fish in my tank, but small fish go missing sometimes and I've heard they can. I bet they only eat weak fish that are dying anyway. They get to be 10" in diameter so the bigger tank would be better long term.
