Default Creature Question

I saw a four tentacle white creature craw out of a Green Star Polyp I placed in my tank - it was non larger than a 1/4 inch. It had a center and four tentacles. It was all white.


What is it?


Thanks

That's exactly what this thing is doing. I can just see a couple of legs hang out every now and then. I think there is more than one. Nice critters I guess.

Yes but not striped. And I cant see the body. I can only see about two legs or maybe three at a time. It's hidden really well in the rock and under the GSP. But I think that it is definitely a Micro Star.
