I would like to compile a list of sand or bottom dwelling corals or sessile inverts that can tolerate and thrive living in systems with sand sifting gobies. Please let us know what corals and inverts you have that don’t need constant attention with the Turkey blaster.

Fungía plates - they can move around the tank and they can easily shed sand that is dropped on them.

Rock flower anemones - they can move and also shed off sand.

what else do you guys have? Those are the only two I know of lol.

I'm following because I'm new to the hobby and have some sandy areas that I would like to put something. I don't have sand sifting gobies but I have a pistol shrimp that likes to throw sand everywhere. It's only a 5g so the sand gets tossed a fair distance by my pistol. :-)
