The red shape hiding in the corner of this photo is a sea cucumber (Class: Holothuroidea), a fascinating creature closely related to sea stars and sea urchins. Like all other enchinoderms, they have an endoskeleton, tube feet, and are radially symmetric (Picture courtesy of A. Lanier, DLCD). For another view, check out this this picture
