Also, I'm from Australia as well and I haven't actually seen a sexy shrimp in my LFS store before. Not sure if they get them in so you might have to check and/or ask them to order them in.

Could do more zoas or mushrooms. Get a nice little garden going. I would maybe wait a bit before adding more though. See how your original stuff does for longer than a week first.

Ok, I went on a holiday for a few days and when I came back my snail had died and had been rotting in the tank for days. The mushroom had shrunken and the zoas were closed, but luckily it was an easy fix. I did a 100% water change and after that the zoas opened up and the mushroom went back to its normal size.

Glad to hear the corals are doing better, I'm sorry to hear about your snail though :(
I'm not 100% sure what happened to it, I think its because there was no algae in the aquarium for it to eat, and it refused to eat algae wafers so I think starvation is the cause of death.
