I got them all right! But didn't get a chance to post first! But it's kind of cheating for me since we own saltwater critters and go diving all the time : )
nice pics!

I used to love snorkeling. I'm not a huge fan of fish, but I love the under-sea inverts, sharks, and rays.
What kinds of critters do you have?

haha roy! lol
BB we have tons of corals, and a few fish. Over the years we've had sea leathers, star fish, hermit crabs, other crabs, shrimp, you name it.
Plus i've seen a lot of them diving.
You should totally go diving btw. If you've gone snorkeling, i bet you'd like diving better! I personally hate snorkeling..weird right? But it makes sense...with diving you don't get water in your mouth! You just have air all the time! AND you can go down and really get close to the animals and POKE them properly *lmao*
To me, snorkeling is actually harder to do.
I spend the whole time trying to see things...turning my head just a tiny bit, then getting water in my stupid snorkel!

oh i didn't remember that actually! dang girl. scared of fish? LOL
who am i to talk, i'm scared of ants!!!
Okay i will find some pics! when we had harlequin shrimp, they ate the chocolate chip starfish, but we had a huge 3 foot long (from tip of arm to tip of arm) green brittle star for a lot of years.
Also a serpent star (big surprise LOL) and now we have a couple feathered stars. I don't have many pics of them so i'll have to get some.
We've had tons of corals, and right now our tanks are full of 'em.
I'll get some pics up!

"Seastar" then =P whutevs!
It is really difficult to get the tank established, actually *lol*
we've had ours for about 7 years now, and just recently had a huge disaster when the power went out over night. We lost 12 fish, though all the corals were okay because they use less oxygen. The phytoplankton creates carbon dioxide at night, and suffocated the fish.
In the past, we've had other weird things, like something that killed all our crustaceans, only, and then other things like ich, and issues with fish.
Corals are very delicate. We've gone through all kinds to get a nice ballance that we have now.
It's been a lot of money, and a lot of work! I let my hubby do it all now. I might have given up a while ago *lol*
