Couple hitchhiker stars on frag, scrap'em? (1 Viewer)

Got this Tyree Toadstool from Quac, and noticed a very small 3 legged brittle star and a dime sized thick armed star too. I'm sure he has a ton in his tank if I got two on one small piece. Should I keep them or ditch them?

Found two more of the thicker ones but very small.

I got a tiny brittlestar last year on a frag I bought from him. I was pumped, since I didn't have any of them. I would defo keep him. The star fish is up to you, I have a bunch of them. Never seen them bother anything, and I bet Quoc has not either, or he would deal with them.

I'd keep em, for sure.

I just took the Bigger star out and threw it in the chaeto. It was clinged to the side of the Toadstool, took it off and it had been eating tissue off the Toadstool.

When I put the frag into the tank, the star left it only about a half inch before returning for a snack.
