I had a problem of snails going over the top of my overflow into the box. I was concerned they would plug the outlet of the overflow so I added a guard today.

Stopped at Home Depot and bought a section of Gutter Guard for $5. Looks like it should work:

I changed around the invertebrate tide pool tank a bit making a very shallow section with a small island and a cave to hide my Korilia.
Here's a tank shot

I just glanced over at the "tide pool" tank and my big turbo snail was on the "shore" almost completely out of the water

I have two brittle stars - A Pink Brittle Star which looks like a bristle worm and a Serpent Brittle Star which is brown with black stripes.

Brittle stars are reef safe but many sea stars are not.

I edited the post and labeled the pictures of the CUC. Hopefully that helps. The bottom picture is the Serpent Brittle Star

Here's the newest addition
