Found this little bugger in my tank after never seeing him for 3 years. how bad is for my H. Reidi?
It is about 3 inches from tip to tip.

Sorry for the bad pic, I used my iPhone

it looks to be a little serpent star. as far as i know they are completely harmless, just good scavengers....
 
no, i am sure it was a small serpent star, i was just wondering much trouble can they be for my sea horses
 
No problem at that size. If it is the species that gets larger, then as it grows larger it can be problamatic.

Have you not added anything in three years? I got a similiar hitch hiker I attributed from adding macro. Was the only thing added in a years time. I moved it to the sump, where it has grown even larger. Fun little guys though, I have one in my reefs sump as well that was also a freebee.
