Waterbox 130.4 Macroalgae Display

I recently got some new livestock this week so I'm very excited to share them with you guys!

Basket Starfish, this is one of the coolest thing I've ever had in this tank.

How is the Popcorn shrimp (P. kororensis) getting on without a Heliofungia in which to host? I have been searching for these shrimp for ages but cannot locate one in the UK.

How have you found the care of the Caribbean Oysters? Similar to clams or significantly easier?

It seem to be about the same, I see them expelling waste so it seem like it's able to feed on the phyto that I dose in the tank. I'd say Maxima clams and the likes are easier since they can utilize light, I believe these oyster are strictly filter feeders.

I put 2 in the tank but I haven't seen them since, I did add a hairy plate so I'm hoping they will make it their home eventually.
 
Some random pics from this week!

First up is a Leander Plumosus, this has been a dream shrimp for me to have

Here's a longer video as requested =)



Really astonishing video right there, thank-you for posting that. The best compliment that I could possibly pay to you is that my eyes could get lost in your tank for hours on end with my complete, undivided attention.
