Starfish?

In my tank, I see a tiny white spot moving around. It looks like a tiny star, complete with the little tube-feet it has for moving around. It is VERY small, usually near the bottom of the front glass. It looks to have the beginnings of the star shape but not complete yet. It's all white. Any idea what such a critter could be?

Sounds like an Asterina Starfish. There are quite a few different varieties of them. Some say reef safe, some say they will bother corals. I have quite a few in my tank and have had no problems with them. Here is a little info on them:

Those pics look to be what I have and there's no SPS in this tank. How did it get in the tank? All of my rocks have been exposed to air multiple times, as has the sand and everything else that went in the tank.
