Snail and possible starfish IDs

[W00F]

Hi - thanks in advance for the help!
Snail- it’s very small- notice the sand size

Is this next one the common starfish we always see? It just looks different than the white ones I’ve had. Ignore the superglued vermetid snail in the picture.

The snails I'm not sure on but im sure @KJ could ID it for you. The star is a typical asternia star. Sometimes they look like little nubs, and other times mishapen stars. You will be hard pressed to find an asternia that has all 4 legs, and looks like an actual star.

The snail looks like a collonista sp snail and that is an asterina starfish. They both shouldn't harm anything but can become an abundance in your aquarium. The astrerina stars have sometimes been considered zoa eaters, but I've yet to have that experience
