So I have a piece of LR that I have seen about 10 tiny little tanish/whiteish starfish. Are these bad? They are a little bit smaller than the circumference of a pencil eraser. Just wanted to know more about them and if they should be pulled out of the tank or not...

Some people say they eat coraline algae...  I think they are pretty much harmless ...

Some people also think they eat corals. I have had no problem with them. They are called Asterina Stars.
