anyone know what type of sea star this is. i think he came in on a piece of rock and coral i bought. just wanted to know if he was a good or bad creature. he has 7 legs and is the size of a dime . fluff?
I wanted to add that sometimes they can have five legs, six or seven. And sometimes they can have one really huge leg and look really odd.

my tank went from 10 to about 500 in the space of 3 years. Mine have not harmed any corals and when the lights go off at night they all come out on the rocks and it looks really cool.
