Lovely video, but I was wondering what is moving in the coral gravel in the bottom right quarter of the screen? Seem to be three or four different locations with something moving.....

Probably the Jebao wp10 pulsing and moving the gravel a little. There's one off camera to the right.

Is that a red mithrax crab? I didn't think they were filter feeders rather very similar to a emerald crab? Looks different to me..... Maybe a porcelain crab?

Cool video, he's really going to town. Used to have a crab that would filter feed like that but he got lost when I upgraded tanks.
