So every once in a while I notice that I get brown diatom on the front of my 40g display and I hate it, lol. I have a lot of LR so I might have a few dead spots but I feel I would benefit from more sand sifting. I do have a yellow watchman goby and nassarius snails but the gobey doesn't sift much and I don't see the snails other than at feeding time. I would like to get another gobey that sifts sand better, but I know they're territorial. Anyone who has sandsifting options, they'd be greatly appreciated. I just realized that I mislabelled my post! Meant to say "sand sifting advice" LOL. Sorry!

Conch's are great, Tiger tail cucumbers work good as well. There are many sand sifting gobies but they tend to make a mess.
