i have bristleworms and thats what i thought it was at first but it was def a seastar of some kind had the body w/ legs, and it is definately a brittle star because it had the hairy looking arms like a bristleworm, thanks for the help austinsdad and sadie

doesnt totally match anything on there but im sure it is a different species of something, could it be just a bristle worm out for food during the daytime?

also forgot to add that the brown diatoms have stopped growing on my live rock as much, just the glass for the most part, and anyone think my corals will be ok with just actinic for 8 hours a day for a few days to get rid of the brown diatoms or will they still thrive under this light w/o the...
