Hello,
I just seen this white color critter. I think it's a star of some sort.
Can some please tell me what this is.

Can this critter harm my Reef?

He are some pictures of the critter.

asterina starfish. i have alot of white ones myself. they dont bother anything but algae :). some have been reported to munch on corals. but not often. they will multiply in the tank. i started with one, now i have 20-30. that i can count at any given time at night.
