Well they should live because the hermit crab isn't a part of the triplefins food web, but I'm not sure if my lights can support the amount of Zooxanthallae in the Red Beadlet

I found the cockle in the sand while searching for snails at a small inlet but cockles are incredibly abundant in New Zealand the catch limit is 50 per person per day!

You ever went clam digging, go to a sandy beach and look for the holes in the wave washed area, then dig around ⅔ of a meter deep in the sand about 5 inches from the hole, then with your hands dig gently to the holes point at the bottom of the whole and work your way to the surface, you should get a clam several inches long if you find a larger surface hole. Its pretty hard though but fun.

So at the moment I'm doing a science fair experiment and whilst looking for anemones I found this Olive Rockfish
