Should I call it dead and remove it?

I always leave Leathers in the tank until I see them start to dissolve. At that point they aren't coming back. So even if it looks battered, until you see it melt, you can leave em alone.

One piece is just shredding to the slightest touch, I found 3 other hitchhikers, 1 what looks to be a bristle starfish, and 2 more bristle worms not to mention a few amphipods

EDIT: I just found what looks like 2 other really small bristle starfish could be wrong though

Yea, I'd take it out now. If it comes apart with just the wave of the water, its done.

Well one piece seems pretty strong, I'll leave that one but the other piece breaks to the touch, I also added kent marine reef nano part A&B

Asterina star. Some of them eat corals. Personally I wouldn't take the chance and would remove it ASAP.

I have a bunch of thos in my tank. No issues. They are more common than one would think. And most don't touch corals.

 

[Bjohn]

Oh really? Good to know, I've been taking them out as I see them. I know the ones with colour on them are bad

Yup, you got it.

This one has little speckles of color also is it a good sign that feather dusters are out?
