A body like a spider, and tentacles like a tiny octopus with 4 tentacles!

Any idea what this may be?

It has a small body like a daddy long-leggs. It has 4 long thin tentacles. It hides most of the time with only the tentacles sticking, came out when a sea star attacked the coral. It tried to wrap around the blue starfish which was amusing because the sea star is about 1000X bigger than it. In this picture their bodies are hidden but their tentacles are sticking out. Bottom right of Zoanthid.

Not sure what it is but if its protecting your coral, well trying to it can't be that bad can it

Look like micro brittle stars.

Thanks for the ID. I thought it looked like the reticulated brittle star but these are so small I thought it couldn't be that.

Not so micro anymore! Someone turned off the hallway light and the tank was completely in the dark. When I checked on the tank the glass has about 6 1.5 to 2" diameter stars on it. I just hope they eat algae.
