Ocean on Instagram: "A basket star is a unique type of brittle star recognized for its long, intricately branching arms that coil and twist like living threads. Found in the deep ocean, it spreads these arms wide to snare plankton and tiny drifting organisms from the water.

It has a mass of tangled branched arms, which can grow up to a meter long. Each branch has tiny hooks to capture prey. It feasts mainly on zooplankton, usually feeding at night and resting during the day. If an arm is broken or cut off, these extraordinary stars are able to regenerate their limbs and can live for up to 3
