Hitch Hiker Sea Star

[Bandsaw]

Hi all, I added a new coral tonight to my display tank. While aclimating the one coral, I noted the follow fellow was attached to the bottom of the coral.

My wife thinks it's a Linckia multifora. Before I add him to my main display, can someone confirm the species for me. If he is a not so good reef neighbour, would he be OK in the fuge?

I'd agree with your wife. And he's reef-safe, though needs a lot of live rock to supply adequate nutrition. No harm to anything in your reef, though. Nice hitch-hiker!
