hello i just bought live rock but saw some bugs on it wasnt sure what they are because only saw them for a couple of seconds whats the best way of removing them.

also something has tried to eat my starfish do you think it could be the hermit crabs but before i got the crabs the man at the shop said it would be fine the starfish is still moving around (well i think it is) but what should i do
 
They're probably good. 'Bugs' isn't a very good description. If you really want to know what they are, you need to tell us size, color, what's it's body looked like, etc.
 
You don't need/want to remove them as they are highly beneficial. As for ID, they are probably some sort of 'pods'; iso, amphi, cope, etc.

ok well its not the bugs it looks like a hairy worm it comes out for like 5 second then it goes back into its hole

it was a tanned colour dont no about size also i saw a white little starfish


Also wanted to remove them because something in my tank has given my fish little white spots around there mouths wasnt sure if this was the live rock or not
 
It sounds like it was just a bristleworm. They are good, and eat leftover food and things, which keeps it from polluting your tank.
