Gotta love a hobby that offers up little surprises. Here’s latest filter sock find. So many creatures we put in for diversity you wonder gee they alive? I had / have 2 serpent Stars dropped in years ago along with 2 sand sifting stars. Now this little wee guy pops up

I have gha, turf, cyano and something purple and horrid that I have to remove as the fish won't eat it, I stopped feeding nori and the fish hit the algae harder.

We all end up there or close to it at some point. To me, that is how we learn, appreciate it more and grow as keepers of out little glass oceans.
