They have squidgey underbits.
They're not really fish. They belong to a class called asteroidea (Latin for "like a star"). They're in the same family as sea urchins, sea cucumbers and sand dollars.
There are loads of starfish that don't look remotely like the five-pointed fellow above.
Crown-of-Thorns starfish
Pincushion starfish. I want to hug it forever.
Brittle Star
Sunflower starfish. It's like a tentacle cookie.
Linckia starfish. Should be renamed "Gumby".
NSFW audio on the video below (movie in the background).
Feather starfish
Basket starfish
Starfish are cool.
