Sea Star Id

[user 2204]

Need some assistance in identifing the sea star (starfish) in the photo. Got this little one from a batch of LR I just purchased from a fellow reefer.

It is approximately 1 mm at the largest points. It seems to resemble a chocolate star, but I really don't know as it does not have those dark brown bumps like those sea stars do.

Cheers,
Alex
