The Crinoid is an ancient creature that stems from the echinoderm family and is a relative of the starfish. This peculiar looking creature appear very plant-like and resembles an aquatic fern. The Crinoid coils its legs very gracefully, as seen in the picture above, and uses its legs to trap small plankton and other debris.
