sandsifter starfish sickness

#1
I've had my sandsifter starfish for over a year and recently she has slowly been losing parts of her legs. I have a white ribbon eel, a yellow tang, and a long nosed halk fish. My tank just recovered from ick, and all the chemicals are normal. I also have corals that are doing fine. I've noticed that the starfish has not been burying itself in the sand as it used to do. she also moves much slower than she used to. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be killing her? I have not noticed any fish picking at her. Thank you for any help.

When I got mine he would not eat eather, but we looked online and saw to feed them gost shrimp. They are about 30 cents each, but you only nedd to feed them about every 4-5 days. I get them at petsmart.Try not to introduce any new reef shrimp after, because he might go after them.

Every time I have seen that it was a bacterial infection causing necrosis, it is doomed, take it out.
Bummer man~
