So for some reason in my tank my trochus snails have a luxurious fuzz of algae on their shells. They look like white snake. There’s algae here and there around the tank but not a bothersome amount. Recently I discovered a single asterina star that’s I keep a vet close eye on. Today I found the star riding on the snails shell. So I’m not sure if the star is eating algae off the snail or if he means him harm. Any ideas?
 
Most likely eating the algae off the shelf
