My favorite doesn’t need any pictures...because as far as beauty, it isn't much. It is the sand sifting goby. They have so much personality and do such a useful job. It is the only fish I really miss if it is gone. Mine died recently and I just replaced it. Without one my tank looked awful and everyone commented about it being gone, visitors looked for the sand sifter before even looking at anything else the tank.

hey flower is there another name for that goby?
i looked for it and cant find it.
can you mix gobies?
i have my 90 reef there are no fish in it yet i have been adding corals and inverts to it for the last couple years before iadd fish.
its time to start adding fish.the reason i havent added fish is because i only have a 55 qt and have been using it for my 225 tank.
i dont know too much about the smaller fish ,i mostly have bought larger fish for my big tanks.
i would love to put up a post of reef safe small fish i would like to put in the 90 and get some ideas because i really only have done research on the bigger fish and dont know what gets along in the smaller tanks.
