sand bed?????

[corystemp]

Anyone have any recommendations to keep the sand bad sifted and clean. Types of snails, bristeworms, whatever?

Sand Sifting Star. And Nassarius snails.

Oh and some gobies do a great job too, idk what ones tho b/c I don't have one.

Its funny because some animals actually have SANDSIFTING in front of them like sandsifting star or the sandsifting goby. but i like the sandsifting gobies because its fun to watch them actively pick up the sand and sift it

Nassarius snails are your best bet. I'd pass on the sandsifting star if I were you -- it will quickly starve to death in your tank. There are types of reef safe sea cucumbers too.

Definitely pass on the sandsifting star. I purchased one before educating myself and he lasted only four months.

I bought a pink and blue spot goby and he does great sifting through my sand bed. He is quite messy though, but so cool to watch.
