Joes juice, or aptasia X for the big guys, and get some peppermint shrimp to eat the little ones that sprout up later.

This is a sponge. The exact ID escapes me but it is one of the few sponges that do not lay down a permanent base. They can actually crawl around a bit which is incredible IMO.
isnt that just the larval stage bang not the mature entity?

I sent u another email u can post here of a very small star fish that hitchhiked from tha LR......now I need to find out how to care for it.
It's an Asterina Starfish. No special care is needed. They reproduce by dropping arms so don't be surprised if you start seeing more of them.

They're not very effective as a cleaner but I enjoy watching them. There are a few species that can eat coral but they are not common.
I read some where that they are beneficial, I've also read that if you find them on the coral, they are probably eating the dead tissue on a coral which actually helps it to heal faster. Cant find the article, I think it was on wetwebmedia, not sure though.
