starfish stuck? Help...

[Futurecanadian]

Hey guys,

So I have a built in overfloe chambe rin my tank and between the overflow wall and the chambers that hold the filters is a 1/4" gap. this gap is where the water goes in and overflows down and into the chambers... anyway, I noticed tonight that one of my serpant stars is stuck in there and I can not seem to get him out.

I have tried to catch his little legs when they appear, but without any luck so far, does anyone have any ideas? I am worried about him

+1 he'll move when he wants. I have an urchin in my sump, despite his spines he still gets into some crazy tight places.

+2 i USED TO THINK MINE WAS STUCK OR BEING CRUSHED BUT HE WILL COME OUT EVENTUALLY. (not yelling just noticed its on and to lazy to retype )

I had similar happen with my red serpent star. He got in....so he can most likely get out.
I lured mine out with some food. Just dangled some mysis shrimp at the opening and sure enough he came right out to get it.
