the snail in picture number 6 is a predator of barnacles/molluscs, and does not eat algae, just so you know. I can't wait for more stuff!

that was supposed to be in response to your first post, I didn't realize this was three pages long 🤦 Those are tropical pipefish, I think they come from indonesia, or somewhere around there.
