New and need some help!

Oh my gosh thank you so much for your warm welcomes, everyone is so lovely and friendly!!

As a small update to this new reef adventure I'm on.

I noticed that I've got a lot of green algage. Some snails seem to be doing a good job of cleaning it off the glass but they're not really going over the rocks. Maybe because they know there's a gang of crabs.

I discovered tonight (as I feel unwell and decided to check the tank) that I have a gosh dang second crab thing... And some sort of brittle sea star.

Absolutely no idea how to get these crabs out, as I feel they're responsible for the vanishing of my bi color blenny and shrimp (but I can't prove anything).

The critters aren't too fond of my torch and move when I try to take photos.

I also saw the first crab try to lazily eat a tiny little... thing I've never seen before, almost like a very small shrimp but it wasn't enthused about chasing it.

I'm considering starting a fresh tank to move the clowns in case the crab gang decides to stage a coup.

More photos before they were offended.
