I have tiny little white (the size of a pencil tip) spider looking things in clusters of about 100 or so sticking to my glass directly in front of my skimmer discharge. As far as I can tell they are not moving. What are these things and are they bad????

Thanks!!

I have what looks liek a starfish, which three weeks ago had 3 arms, and now has 7. It appears only occasionally on the back glass, and then disappears. Looking through the glass to its suction side I can see that it is a type of echinoderm, beause it has what appear to be, at least, little tiny tube feet. It also has the characteristic symmetry (add0numbered radial) of starfish. But 7 arms? I think maybe it is going to split?
