A portion of an impacted coral with attached brittle stars

A portion of an impacted coral with attached brittle stars. Living tissue is orange but much of the skeleton is bare or coveed by brown flocculent material. The left brittle star is of normal coloration but the individual to its right is bleached white and much more tightly wrapped around the branch than normal.
