Starfish ID

[Dimi]

Hi Guys

Please can you ID the starfish. Need to know if it is reef safe? Looks as though it is chasing my sans shifting starfish and the zoas are dissapearing.

Thanks in advance

Not always, but in most cases, any starfish with knobs, are not reef safe.

Protoreaster. They're pretty much wrecking balls.
