Clams and micro stars?

[Mikefromaz]

Hello all! I have a question, about micro stars in a tank with tridacnas........ I have had micro stars for over a year now, but only added a derasa and squamosa a few months back. It seems occasionaly (like this morning), I see a micro star camped out on the clam shell, and not moving around much..... Has anyone ever heard of micro starts being dangerous to clams? I know larger starfish, especially the predatory type can be leathal to clams, but micros?? My guess the star is eating algae, but my concern it that they may be boring critters, and Idon't want him drillinga hole in my otherwise happy clams Anyone?

I have never heard of a clam succumbing to a microstar. I wouldn't worry about it.
