many white little starfish??

[sruiz]

I've had my tank running for a pretty long time, but I have never seen so many little white starfish. They look like a circle in the middle with five skinny arms. Do you think these are bad or good . they mostly just hide in rock but I can see the arms hanging out of the rock . sorry but I cannot get a picture to zoom in enough.

sounds like you are talking about mini brittle starfish. They are good.

I used to have them in my tank. For some reason they all disappeared. Do wrasses eat them? Becuase I have 4 total.

Wrasse eat them. What kind of Wrasse do you have? The 4/6 line wrasse eat them. But I believe it's in any of the wrasses diet.

I have a six line, yellow, tri color and cleaner. I've seen the yellow wrasse dive under the sand after worm like creatures.

Do they grow up into big brittle stars? Mine seem to be getting a slight greenish hint to the now
