Need a new sand sifter

[fiji4118]

So, lost my long time diamond goby this week. Thinking about changing it up this time. All that is in there now are nassi snails. Could add some sand sifting stars but I am thinking I would like a different fish. Tank is a 150 reef. Lots of fine sand to sift. Love some thoughts on what to add or I could always get a new baby diamond.

Thanks!

So I have a blue head and all he does is hide. I love sand sifting stars as the appear and then disappear. Also love the diamond goby as they are constantly out and about. The only thing I don't like about mine is he feels the need to bury all my corals on the sandbed. I think its just to get attention.

Don't those grow to 24" though?

I would add a couple cucumbers to help the nassarius snails. The sand sifting cucumber from sealifeinc is cool but its more of a filter feeder and stays in one spot.

I don't think so.

I believe you're thinking of the twin spot wrasse.

I think twin spot gobies only grow to 2 or 3 inches

Two spots top out at 3".

My tiger tail went everywhere along the sandbed, one of those might work for you. He was nocturnal though. A guy on RC got a blue/yellow sand sifting star that looked really sweet.

You're right, my bad.
