Got a piece of LR off a local reefer last nite. It came with at least one mini-star that I saw. Today, I saw another tiny white star on the glass.
It only seems to have 3 good arms and 3 stubby arms. Isn't that the trademark of the dreaded Asterina star? Or, is this a mini that's split in half and is regrowing? I didn't think they took to the glass.
I took a pic - but its just a fuzzy white blob in the pic. Can tell it has 3 legs and that's about it so I won't insult you by posting it :P Any advice on getting a P&S camera to focus on something other than the water column would be helpful (i read the photography articles here already)
If it is asterina i'd love to know so I remove them while the population is still minimal. Any tips on ID'ing these things?
