what kind of star is this?

Close up pic would be a lot better, but it looks like a formia (spelling) star mabey?

 

[nicetanknofish]

no that is not it, it is a brown color with orange bumps.
this is as close a pic as i can get without it being too blurry.

could be a red linkia too the blue lighting could make it look darker than it is, but I am no star expert, Ophuria will probably know.

It is an Echinaster. I would need a better picture to know for sure.
