Tiny starfish on my live rock?

Yes, they are fine...occasionally, people have reported them to go for sps corals, but persoanaly have never experienced that..they feed on algae and bacteria and reproduce by dropping a leg...

If those are the starfish you have, some say they are not good & some say they are good detrius eaters. There may even be 2 different species that look very closely alike--1 bad, 1 not. I have a lot of them in my tank. At night, I see them draped over the face of my zoas--not good, IMO. The zoas seem to be doing great though.
