Starfish sick (I think?)

ok, have my first starfish in my 29 nano. Have had him for about 5 days now and all was well. Even about 4 hours ago it seeme fine. Came home from dinner and the starfish is a lot bigger. It is as if someone has blown it up like a baloon. It is not moving either.

Also, when I brought it home, the pet store told me to feed it frozen food underneath it after a couple days. Two days ago I tried that. It was like a circus in my tank with the fish trying to get the food. So maybe it is starving?

Checked all the numbers in the tank and they seem to be fine. The other fish and corals are all good. Except I did lose a Turbo Snail yesterday (related?).

Up for ideas/feedback....

Just feel bad that I am killing this thing!

Leav'n cell phone # if it is just easier to call. Don't mind it. Just want to save this guy (if it isn't too late!)

Update. Now the thing is curling up into a ball. I guess I am too late to help this guy? Just wish I knew what was wrong!

Sigh.....
