Wade Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 I've had asterinas roaming around for some time, but these seem a bit different. They've got color for one thing and markings too. They're also almost the size of a quarter. Are these just mature asterinas or some other kind of star? I've not added anything other than a couple of Halloween hermits to my tank in a long time.

Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Asterina starfish. Common hitchhiker. Can be harmless like most of them, or it could be predatory. Probably harmless though eating detritus and bacteria in the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 Thanks. I've got a lot of small ones and they have been harmless. I just haven't seem any that looked complete and had any color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
