There's a myriad of different Asterina star species all preying on different food sources. Most are regular herbivores/ detritvores but some prey on soft corals such as zoanthids.

I must be lucky, they leave my zoas alone but I do not have sps in the tank

Thanks for all the comments. Good to know. I'll keep an eye on it and see what happens.
