Yes Brittle. Very similar to the serpent in color. Had two, a serpent, and a green. The green ate a nem that decided to move on the bottom, then the serpent ate the green for some reason. While star fish days. Gave the serpent to a LFS, being I’m now an all clown and nem tank.

Very unlikely this is the kind that gets that big. Most get to be about two inches from tip to tip tops.

I wish I would have taken a video. The green brittle was about 10” and the serpent was about 7-8” tip to tip. The bodies yes they do not get big.
