Hi segavim, these used to be known as Starfish but as they are not really fish many scientists now believe it should be changed to Sea Star as they live in salt water (mainly sea, rarely brackish and never fresh). There is an article here which gives some more details: http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/invertebrates/starfish/ As it is not a fish please remove it from the fish category and put it in the "Other" category. They are in the Class Asteroidea and are actually a marine invertebrate.
