Does anyone know what kind of starfish this is? Hitchhiker on a piece of LR I bought. Its about 1/4 of an inch in diameter

Looks like an asterina starfish. I have many in my tank. They may or may not be coral safe depending on specific species. Mine just hang out on the rocks but if you see it munching on zoas or any corals remove them. They will reproduce but not at epidemic proportions or anything.

Yup I've never had any problems with mine either

Thanks to both of you. I will keep and watch them for awhile.
