Sand sifters?

[gkotlin]

What is a good sand sifter? I need one or two for a 100 gallon reef tank and a new 40 gallon reef tank.
I've had diamond gobies before and they jumped. What is a good sifter that isn't a jumper?

Try a tiger tail cucumber, 50 nassarius snails & 2 fighting conchs.

They may not be what you're looking for, but nassaruis snails do a great job on your substrate..

Yep, I already have some. Maybe I'll stick with them if they do a good job instead of fish.

Do you have a cover on your tank? You could put eggcrate on top... although some people here have still had them jump.
Get two fighting conchs. They get a bit large (not as big as the Queen Conch) but they'll take care of your problem.

what even does better than my nassarius snails is my sand sifting star. It does wonders. It goes along just below the surface of the sand, eating as it goes, and sifting the sand wonderfully. Here's SWF's link:Sand sifting star
