what kind of starfish do you have?

that suck's sorry to hear most starfish that need food will eat silverside's, krill, lancefish, squid, clam, and other meaty seafood piece's depending on the species of starfish you had.

what can i feed thats safe to all starfishes???
His description... he has 5 legs. small. colored brown and a little green on the top (the green parts look like algae)
btw, I also have live ghost shrimps and dead ones are also available in the market to. Can i feed them freshwater shrimps?
I would try to give him something small first like frozen mysid shrimp near him see if he goes overtop of it to eat then try krill or silverside's. They can't catch live ghost shrimp to quick for the starfish stay clear of freshwater Invert's as much as possible.

Knowing the species would greatly help. I had a serpent star that would aggressively take all meaty foods (not live) and pellets. I also had a chocolate chip that just move around and fed on detritus, he'd take a pellet or very small piece of shrimp if I actually pushed it gently under him. There are other stars that only sift through sand for detritus.
