I bought a small piece of LR with 4 Bullseye mushrooms growing on it, as well as some cool dusters attached. What I noticed when I placed the rock in my tank is that in several holes of the rock there are tiny spiny worm looking legs with a white and black bandit color scheme to them. There are 2 legs coming out of each hole. IT almost looks like a very small starfish legs, about a 1/2 inch. Can anyone help me id this hitchhiker (starfish)? Will try to post pics.

Yeah, harmless and they'll help clean up uneaten food.
If you keep an eye on the tank it's not unlikely to see them spawn occasionally.

Cool, the size of the rock is like a regular fist, and there must be 8-10 of these little guys coming out of the pores of the rock, pretty neat! I paid 24.99 for 4 mushrooms 4 nice dusters, all these star fish and nice coraline growing on it. First pickup for my 55 reef...man this is addicitng
