Noticed some new life forms on the glass in my tank tonight. They are small white spheroids with 10-15 "arms" on them, maybe 5x the size of a grain of sand. So far they appear to be sessile, I can't tell if the "arms" move or if it's the current. I know pics would help but I don't have a camera with manual focus... Any input?

Look up asterina and see if they look like yours.

I'm sure I have full grown ones ( If Aphrodite hasn't eaten them all yet ) But these are TINY. Maybe embryonic versions... IDK. I almost hope so, that would point toward a renewable food chain for her, lol.

There are millions of different creatures living in our LR. I remember once a chance spotting of something long corkscrewing across my tank once. Very cool. I was told it was come kind of juvenile sessile worm that moves in that manner at that age. Just happened to catch it with the flashlight at the right time at night.
