Feather stars also known as crinoids. They are characterized by radial symmetry. The body of a typical feather star is cup-shaped, their numerous feathery arms project from a central disc. Some have five arms, others as many as 200. The arms, called pinnules are coated with a sticky substance that helps to catch food.

There are also a few artificial reef balls which although not yet covered with much coral are still the habitat of a large variety of fishes. We also saw the rare clearfin lionfish (Pterois radiata), the only lionfish with horizontal lines on the tail base and a sleepy ghost pipefish who fell out of a feather star.

At the top of the page is a living specimen of a comatulid - an unstalked crinoid, or "feather star." It superficially resembles a starfish, but the mouth faces up, and the comatulid crawls by "walking" on specialized structures called cirri.
