What do you mean "how they act"?

From what I can gather the species you want photos of are

That's my Figure 8. He's in a 29g tank with knight gobies. I feed them bloodworms, shrimp, and snails.
 
My figure 8 is in a 10 gal, by itself. He eats freeze dried shrimp, super worms, wax worms, crickets, sinking hikari carnivore pellets, frozen shrimp, and blood worms.
 
how do u keep ur tanks algae free?

what kind of plantts can i put in the brakish tank?
 
I dont keep them algae free. I heard java ferns can go in them.
 
Ya, I've got lots of algae, but it doesn't look bad... I keep the front glass clean, but I let it grow on the rocks.
 
what kind of algae eater can go in brakish? plecos-shrimp-snails...
 
for a brackish tank algae eaters are limited to basically mollies who peck at it but wont eliminate a tank of algae. Another one is amano shrimp who destroys algae, but a shrimp or any type of crustacean is a huge no no with a puffer. If youre planning a brackish tank be prepared fo algae, it grows like wildfire in most brackish tank unless planted.
