unidentified crawling object

Anyone have an idea what this thing is? I'm guessing a starfish of some sort... Its tiny being the diameter of a BB.

Looks like some kind of asterina starfish. Hard to say what species though.

yep, asterina.

awww....it's so cute and little.

sometimes they eat coral, but generally they are harmless and beneficial.

I'd say asterina too. You don't have any aussie corals do you? It looks like a baby crown of thorns also. Yikes

That's the very first thing I thought, too! Luckily it's missing a few too many arms. *whew!*
