A starfish is a marine animal (echinoderm) that has five or more arms, so it is shaped like a star. Because it is not a fish, some now refer to it as a sea star. It has a hard, craggy upper shell and hundreds of sticky "feet" on its bottom side that let it attach itself to rocks.

there are cusion starfish, reef starfish, spiny starfish and fire brick starfish in new zealand.
It is called toilet water.
The bottom of a starfish is covered with hundreds of flexible tubes, consisting of a stalk (podium) and pod (foot). Internal water pressure expands the feet, which use sticky chemicals to adhere to various surfaces. To release its hold, the pod retracts into the podium and exudes another chemical that dissolves the adhesive.
