Current To Strong For My Fish

[CowFishlova]

I set up a small 36 gallon aqurium a while ago and just got my first fish for it a couple days ago. It is a small Black And White Damsel Fish (Dascyllus Aruanus) and he hides in the corners. I can tell he wants to come out but wheever he tries he has to swim diagonal beacause the current is to strong for him. Is there anythingh I can do?! I feel bad for him, he ties o hard but the current is to strong. Oh and I found a tin 6 legged whit baby star fish in there, he must be from the live rock I got. Can anyone help me identify what type he is and if I need to do anything special for him?! Can anyone give me some advice?! Thanks!!

What kind of current do you have in there? My 5.5g has over 30x turnover and I've got a very tiny panda goby that can handle the current very well.

The white starfish is more than likely a small species of sand sifting starfish. They are harmless.
