$The Red Fanworm Protula bispiralis (ex. Protula magnifica) occurs in the tropical Indo-West Pacific from Westcoast Africa tu Australia. The spieces has with 38 whorls of spirally arranged branchial radioles, a tube diameter of up to 2cm and grows up to 30 cm. There are several common names like Red Hard Tube Coco Worm, Mopworm or Feather Duster. The species uses the feeding crowns to catch microplankton.\nLembeh Strait, Indonesia \n1°27'38.1666 N 125°13'34.2828 E at 8m depth$

Feather Star photographed off the Southern Gulf Islands of British Columbia.

A detailed underwater close-up of a feather star crinoid with delicate, feather-like arms spread out in a striking display. Among its fronds, small shrimp can be seen camouflaged, highlighting the intricate relationships within coral reef ecosystems. This marine life image emphasizes biodiversity, adaptation, and the beauty of invertebrates in tropical waters. Perfect for editorial, scientific, and conservation use, showcasing unique reef species.

Featherstars favour areas which have frequent currents, into which they extend their many arms in order to catch passing microplankton. This food is then transferred to the central mouth by means of the undulations of hundred of hair-like cilia. In still water, feeding is impracticable and they fold their arms inwards. This often results in very pleasing patterns, as in this example of a resting individual of the species Oligometra serripinna (20 cms.).

Feather star, Florometra serratissima, is an animal not a plant growing in the Pacific Ocean.

A bright yellow crinoid fans its tentacles out to feed on plankton flowing over a reef in Indonesia. Crinoids are ancient echinoderms often found as fossils.

$Feather stars look like plants, but they are animals known as echinoderms, along with sea urchins, sea stars, brittle stars and sea cucumbers. \n\nThey are invertebrates that are only found in the ocean and are known for their five-point radial symmetry and unique water vascular system. The feathery arms that typically appear in multiples of five, allow them to keep the radial symmetry echinoderms are known for. They use these plumy arms to capture plankton and other small bits of food that drift by them in the water column. And if they lose an arm to predation, they can regrow it, just like sea stars. \n\nThey have a few options to move around the sea floor. For short distances, they can use tiny leg-like appendages called cirri to inch along the substrate. They also use cirri to trap food particles they come across along the way. To move further, they can use their arms to swim in the water column. \n\nKaimer, near Tayandu Island, Indonesia\n5°8'44.496 S 132°0'46.254 E at 9m depth by night$

Elegant Crinoid Squat Lobster Allogalathea elegans occurs in the tropical Indo-West Pacific from East Africa to Fiji in 0-146m, associated with crinoids in which it gets protection and an ideal support for its plankton feeding. This specimen in his typical habitat, on top of a feather stars aboral cirri, a feather star who is attached at a soft coral. As its host has the same diet, Allogalathea elegans takes advantage of the positions in the best catchment areas for the plankton to feed. Palau, 7°5'12.18 N 134°15'34.77 E at 17m depth
