Got my first coral on sat - some nice green mushrooms. Only went to the LFS to get an emerald crab (love those evil little guys) but the little git hid inside a coral frag so I ended up buying that as well

Also seem to have picked up a hitchhiker in the form of a baby starfish
Anyone know what sort it is and if its ok to keep?

I don't think so. He was hiding under the shrooms at the LFS, so possibly he just felt comfortable there now he's in a new tank?
