Crinoids are marine animals that make up the class Crinoidea of the echinoderms. They live both in shallow water and in depths like 5 miles.
Sea Lilies are invertebrates that move freely along the bottom of the ocean. There are 80 different species of sea lilies. Feather stars use their grasping “legs” (called cirri) to perch on sponges, corals, or other substrata and feed on drifting microorganisms, trapping them in the sticky arm grooves. They are about 24 inches tall and live near Australia and Japan.
