Well I felt like taking some pics this morning so here's a bakers dozen.
Here's my acan lords, blastos, and a tooth coral in the shape of a heart.

And an angle shot of the tank to finish it off, sorry it's not as clean as it usually is when I take pics.

Gorgeous tank! Just wondering, what do you have cleaning up your sand? It looks pristine!

Thanks,
If you find a good sand sifting goby he will make your life a lot easier. Tiger Gobies are really cool looking and do a great jpb keeping the sand clean, I never have vaccumed it. Snails and crabs also do their part helping out.

In fact, I just got a tiger goby (my LFS called it a bullet goby) last week for this very purpose. Right now, he is mainly concentrating on one corner of the tank -- mostly, I think, because my maroon clown and yellow tang won't let him really explore the rest of the tank yet.
Do you have only one tiger goby, or more than one? My LFS suggested that in larger tanks you can have more than one, but I don't want to get more than my system can handle. I think in the 58, one will be enough -- he just has to get brave enough to do the whole tank.

One should be fine, it's also water quality and flow that helps the sand stay clean. I only have one goby in my tank right now and I wouldn't suggest you put more than one in your tank, they will probably fight. He should start to get braver soon and take care of the rest of the tank just give him time to catch up.
