Hi welcome back to the hobby

We’ve actually got some pretty interesting marine life on our shores as I learned from the RSPB Handbook of the Seashore. You may find it a useful resource. Well worth reading / having as a reference. And useful for tropical marine life as well as the biology and anatomy are similar.

I went down to Birling Gap / Beachy Head but didn’t get a chance to go rock pooling so keen to know how you get on where you go!

I was going to suggest this video / YouTube channel from Marks Aquatics but just saw a comment which may be you?

Here it is anyway:


Please do share the link to your YT channel once it’s set up. Keen to follow along!

Best of luck!

Hello :) After being out of the Marine scene for about 10 years and all I've had since is a tropical nano tank.
I'm starting a Youtube series with my daughter, in which we rescue Supermarket invertebrates etc from the pan!
I have a fairly small setup cycling at the moment. I've been trying to find suitable small crabs/snails etc to add to help with cleanup, but there's a lot of conflicting information out there. At some point I hope to travel to the south coast (UK) and see what I can find, but until then I could do with buying some.
I've noticed a few members from years back who were doing the same, I was just wondering if any were around to advise on what I could be looking for, and any links.
I'll post updates of the setup :)

Also it's nice to see an actual forum still in operation, I prefer them to social media!

Welcome to the forums!

Quick update, his claws seem to be working again. He couldn't use them when he arrived. Also he's definitely feeding, as you can see here!
