Is this a spiny brittle star???

[Jam0Cat0]

I just saw this in my tank for the first time ever! I am thinking its a spiny brittle star, but I thought they only had 5 legs can they have 6 and is that what this is??????

Looks like a brittle star to me, I see them in my sump a lot, not as many in my DT. I like to watch them, but usually hide when I turn the light on.
