snails yes not a problem. brittlestars adn sand sifters.. not a good idea.. most sand sifters are looking for food in the sand to eat ..soooooo not sand..no food... you might be able to train them to eat frozen, but that might be more hassle then anything

I agree, I don't think SAND SIFTERS will do good in a BB.

If I gotta do another small tank how large would it have to be to house 3 sand sifting seastars, 3 sand worms, 3 very large brittlestars, 3 large (blank for name ) black and white striped stars. Can't just let these guys perish!
