It is pretty but I wouldn't want to step on one if it was in shallow water!
Looking like a throwback to the Cambrian era - or perhaps some sort of Metroid enemy - these scaly, dome-shaped animals are actually a variety of sea urchin, sometimes called a "helmet" or "shingle" urchin.
Most of their spines are flattened into scaly tiles over their upper surface, with a ring of more paddle-shaped spines around its base. This sturdy arrangement allows the sluggish algae-eater to withstand the roughest waters of the Hawaiian islands, clinging to wave-battered rocks where softer creatures would be pulverized.
I did a brief Google search of the image and had no success.
I know what it is and here is another. You have to be as old as me and then you may not recognize so here is a clue- naaaaaa na na naaaaaa....
One more. I tried to track these down on the net but no luck. Most were done by the same artist. They sell repaintings of them done quite well though.
Heh. A bit more sinister than Journey.
This one is a bit more iconic. More hints?
The same as himself. I like his work. They were all introduced by the same fellow, though not the one who painted them.

Bingo Neesey!
They were done by artist Thomas J. Wright and many have been lost or reused and altered. Funny how nobody thought they would be valuable.

) but still cannot find the artist for that other picture up above.(the colourful one where the hint was naaah naaah naaah na na [or something similar]
)

When I look at the registered sex offenders list for my state, and see there's one living in my town.....that gives me the creeps.
