Starfish eating my Zoanthids

[El Patron]

I had a suspicion that I was losing Zoanthids because of these little starfish. But I read in some places that they are safe. Today I saw one in action. Tell me what you think.

Numerous documented cases of Asterina eating Zoanthids. Is it opportunistic feeding or the natural food item, no one knows for sure. Good Catch.

Had this issue 3 months ago. Female harlequin shrimp wouldn't touch them, she was spoiled on chocolate chips. Got a male and he obliterated them, and now he too is hooked on chocolate chips!
