Comments : There is a lot in this picture besides the basket star (which is one of my favorite stars). The yellow organism on the left looks like a Breadcrumb Sponge (Halichondria panicea). The grey on the right looks like a Lobed Tunicate (Cystodytes lobatus). The white above is probably Plumose anemone (metridium senile).
