The fact that hes tuck to the glass I would say no. The starfish that seem to need feeding are the ones that dont leave the sand bed and when you only have a small tank they can quickly starve. I feed mine as I have one of the sand sifters. I just gently push a bit of airtube attached to a small syringe under his middle near his mouth and slowly release a little mixed frozen food into that area for him, i do it ever other day and he seems quite happy and is doing well. If you are at all worried then you can try this method. But as hes on the glass and you seem to have plenty of algae etc he should get enough. Maybe just try it once a week or something so he he gets some meaty treats :)
