Starfish?

[Dr. Peter Venkman]

Anyone know if this is a starfish, or if it's something else? I've never had a starfish, and not sure how to handle them. Are they reef safe? Do they cause issues with other snails/crabs?

Also, I'd really appreciate it if you all would go out and see the new film "Ghostbusters: Afterlife" it's a great flick

asterina starfish it looks like… they can be super tiny and multiply quickly

+1 asterina starfish.
Considered harmless typically other than population explosions being problematic.
Whether you keep it or get rid of it is a matter of preference/opinion.

Let’s put it this way, when you see one you have many more…they quickly over populate… there are some that may feast on zoas…I would get rid of the one you see

lots of post about them on this site

Asterina for sure. Many people have a kill ‘em all mindset towards them. I mostly leave them alone, they’re pretty decent CUC.
