Default Stars and Clowns and Anemones, Oh My.

Also a brittle star has a better ability to carry pieces
of food to it's mouth with it's arms via conveyor-line
like method.

One is behavior that we were discussing, but also look a the visible
difference. A serpent star is smooth, and a brittle star has lot's of
appendages, and a "green brittle/serpent" is smooth with *some*
appendages, but not nearly as much as a brittle star.

There is a difference between the "green brittle", and what we all
call a brittle star.
