White Stars

[MINIATUS]

I was just looking over my dirty tank. Ive found hundreds of things all over the glass. Now if memoery serves me right there was something bad about them. I could be wrong though. Any ideas what they are.

Well the dark tan ones are said to eat coral, but the white and grey ones are ok. I have a ton of the white and grey ones never any problem with them. I occasionally see the tan ones and I remove them to be safe. Steve

MIN,
I think they are from the Asterina family. I've got some of the white ones in both my tanks and haven't had a problem with them.

Yea ___ you said hundreds of them___ that's the problem, they multiply and multiply and multiply. I would get rid of them all wich will take constant patient picking

I plan on tearing this tank down in the next month and going BB this time, so hopefully most will stay in the sand bed and wont transfer to the new setup.
Like you said they havent caused any problem, so thats a good thing. I have people wanting my sand but wonder if I should tell about it.

Im in Canada, so it is next to impossible to ship. Paperwork would be time consuming and shipping would beyond there worth. Sorry.
