#1 - Blue-Legged Huns!!
#2 - So called Mithrax crabs. I've had 3; one was totally worthless except it ate all the tiny featherdustes; one stripped coralline off like candy; the other did eat Valonia but then disappeared.
#3 - Any rock or softie frag without a freshwater dip first. Barely avoided introducing a parasitic Isopod by using a dip.

We are talking about the "sand star", they would wipe out your sand micro fauna.
For me, No more:
Emerald crab, turbo snail, & hermits of all kinds, and ritteri anemone's (somehow just never last in my tank)

Good one Kipreefer!!!!
I would have to say a Chocolate Chip Star. It first ate the small anenome I had growing out of a live rock I purchased, just sucked that baby right down. Then it got to liking the taste so much it went after my pink tippped conylactic. Needless to say I had slimmies afloat, what was left. I don't think it was a fair race.
