Ophiura, can you ID this starfish

Sorry, i can't post the pic directly here, I'm retarded in trying to figure out how to compress my pictures.
But if you go to the website, it's the last picture on page 2. This is the little star that came attached to the gorgorian.

thanks

It is definitely a baby brittle star. I had the same exact gorgonian with the same type of brittle star on it. I also had basket stars on mine.

Reef Fool, thanks, I'm glad it's a brittle star. We'll see how it does.

It is probably Ophiothrix purpurea, and probably a filter feeder (though may take other stuff as well). Nice

Thanks everyone. The little guy is inquisitive. Climbing from place to place, but always ends up back on the gorgorian.
