    Can anyone ID what this is??

    Found this strange looking creature inside my freshwater planted nano shrimp tank so I removed it. It’s about an inch long and crawls on driftwood. I’ve now found another one of these! Can anyone identify what these things are? Are they harmless or dangerous?

    Starfish excreting?

    Is this orange substance the normal waste of a starfish excreting or is it something else to worry about? This orange blotch appears for a few minutes and then disappears and reappears later then goes. This has been happening several times now tonight.
