Sand cleaner or some form of crab

[darrenx]

Hi all just a quick question is there anything I can add to my tank which will clean the sand and any un-eaten food behind my rocks. At the moment I have a picasso trigger, brown tang and a snow flake eel. I do have a crab or two which I have seen on the night when the trigger goes to sleep.. thanx all I know u will help!!

Well not an expert on the trigger or the snow flake but you will have to be careful what you add I should imagine,
but a good sized sand sifter star fish,
I would have suggested a few large hermit crabs or maybe a few Tronchus snails for the sand excuse spelling,

but having said that a friend of mine had a twelve inch snowflake and it managed to dispatch a very large hermit approx 4" across I am sure others will offer better advice good luck,

hmm.. maybe a brittle star fish - just not the green ones! they are sneaky predators but I doubt they'd take your fish - but still, steer clear!

I have a feeling it would fit nicely into that snowflake morays mouth;);)

would just love sumit to clean the sand and get between the living rock to eat any of the food left over from my fish. There must be sumit?
