Do you have corals? Do they get covered up a lot?Love my diamond goby. Clean sand bed; fun to watch, and my sand scape is different every morning!
No corals on sand bed. Occasional blast of sand on corals, but that’s what my turkey baster is forDo you have corals? Do they get covered up a lot?
I like sand in my reef tanks so I always have a goby sifter and some of the snails too. I’ve never had issues other than you have to have a cover at lights out.My 150g tank is currently ~6 weeks old and has brown diatoms on the sand bed. I've always REALLY valued a clean sand bed and I'm thinking of a pair of Sleeper Banded Gobys or maybe a Bella Goby.
As I dive deep in the research rabbit hole it's hard to ignore how many people regret their sand sifting fish.
Do you like yours? Can you tell me about it and its pros and cons?
They always just starve to death.
Very old heavily stocked mature tank?This is inaccurate. I've got one that I've had for about 2 years. It has grown and never lost any limbs. Seems to do just fine in my 125.
I have an engineer goby. I really like her, very fun fish. Secure rockwork is needed, she collapsed mine once tunneling under it. Also dont have any corals that like the sand bed or to be lower, she throws sand all over. Only coral shes killed was a plate coral. She doesnt overturn sand everywhere, just on her side of the tankMy 150g tank is currently ~6 weeks old and has brown diatoms on the sand bed.

Ever have one with a flame hawk, wrasses or a Midas Blenny? I need something for my sand here pretty quick.My diamond goby is awesome! Not a problem with any other fish or coral.
I have a pair of midas blennies and a bella goby. I haven't have any aggression between them.Ever have one with a flame hawk, wrasses or a Midas Blenny? I need something for my sand here pretty quick.
