A777flygirl Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Well I brought home me first corals, mushroom, xenia and another one that I should have written down the name...from the lfs Exciting.... 3 things came off of them...see attached pics. I understand the white starfish is not good but done now what the worm or the red legged star are? Also, a black baby snail like thing but it seems to have legs came crawling out of my sump? Anybody know what these are? I didn't quarenteen the coral but maybe I should have....getting quarenteen tank set up today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bevo5 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Just a bristle worm and an asterina star. Neither is going to cause you problems - the bristle worms are good little tank cleaners, but can get out of hand if the conditions are right. Also, don't touch 'em. It hurts. Those are all fairly common hitchhikers that are [language filter] near impossible to avoid...but again, not a real problem either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A777flygirl Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 Do you you know about the other star and snail like thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasquatch Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Bristle star and baby snail.. probably all those things would have been benifitical in the tank but it's better to be safe than sorry. At least it's not flat worms 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorge Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 That little starfish is actually very attractive! Too bad it's dead 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except in Kevin's April fools day pic I've seen just one! Also not as bright as Kevin's but was indeed red and yellow and if I remember correctly was exactly 75 bucks! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorW Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I've seen just one! Also not as bright as Kevin's but was indeed red and yellow and if I remember correctly was exactly 75 bucks!$75 for a little serpant star!? Holy cow I've got hundreds lol, maybe I'm missing something and there's something special about the ones you're speaking of? They're cool little things, always waving their tentacles around when I feed my fish. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J120AZ using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
