That is an asterina starfish. Link is some reading on them. I don't see any issues from them in my system.

I realize the link is a quick summary. Yours appears to be the type I have. Mine stay on rocks and the glass. No issues that I have noticed from them bothering corals.

I had them they wiped out a bunch of Zoa’s and palys before I caught them in the act and started removing them.. every time I would see one I would pluck it out, thought I had maybe a half dozen or so in my tank but 40 stars later I’m still removing them.. they break off arms and reproduce like rabbits!

Hopefully these are the nice ones. About 2 weeks ago I saw a very very tiny one on my glass not sure if it's the same guy.. or this is the mother

The ones I have are great. Free self regulating cuc for algae and detritus. Never have I had any of the coral/polyp eating ones though. Mine are very similar to what yours looks like.
