Just sharing an interesting little video of my goby eating seaweed. I thought he was choking or had seaweed stuck in his gills; I didn’t realize my sand sifter actually eats nori. Looks like he just sucked on it for awhile

 
Lol my melanarus wrasse is the main one in my tank to eat seaweed

Gobies are omnivorous especially the sandsifters and love algae in their diets. They will also eat any algae on the sand bed fast.

I love the way your other fish are photo bombing (or should I say video bombing) the shot. :-) Are those your lights causing the shimmer? If so what kind are they? I know a lot of people don't like the shimmer bit I love it (as long as it's not excessive). Yours is nice.

Yep, I love the shimmer too. I’m running two Kessil A360W over a waterbox 135.4

Thanks! I have an AI Prime 16 and I wish it had the ability to add a shimmer effect. I'm going to have to check the Kessils out. I find the shimmer so calming. :-)

My iridis and all 3 fairies are the first ones to get hold of the seaweed clips in my 4’ tank and then my foxface will take it from them once they’re done.
