What other fish then Orange Diamond Gobys sift the sand like they do?
 
Here are a couple Sleeper Goby & Orange Diamond Goby
 
Gobies in the genera Valenciennea and Amblygobius will sift, but some will hover higher in the water column, dropping sand on more corals.
 
Just be prepared for a sand storm the first few days as they clean your sand. After about a week it's not near as bad but any coral on or near the sand will get covered.
 
Yea i know about the sand storm.I had one that i need to replace,just checking what other options are out there.Thanks for the warning.
