Baby Red Brittle Stars

[MikeB]

Been watching my tank at night i now have approx a dozen little red Brittle stars in the Rocks. I see them poking their legs out when i feed?

I have a bout a billion.  Totally harmless.  I've never seen them attack anything at all.  I pour about 50 of them out of the filter socks when I change them.

The little white stars are the pesky ones, these ones seem to just be scavengers.

No worries here. My wife likes to watch the little legs searching for food

Are the little white ones bad?

They CAN be, that being said, some people have issues, but I know lots that don't.
