The floating starfish problem will be partially mitigated by the scrolling camera. From the movement of the starfish, it will be obvious to the observer that it's on a plane in front of all the background material. I'm also looking into having a slight shadow below the starfish on the glass. Ordinarily this would indicate dirty glass, but if it is subtle enough, it just might work.
I've never had an "uncanny valley" problem with the Aquarium. Most people seem more than willing to accept the fish as real, and that will only get better as I improve their behavior. I am, however, extremely concerned about this phenomenom when I start making my movie.
