Try the pink spotted watchman. Mine was never much of a sifter. The bullet goby on the other hand is a messy messy fish!!

I'm thinking maybe a pink spot, but I'd really like a sand sifter but I don't want anything that's gonna carry it up my rock stack and start dumping it everywhere. Think I maybe dreaming on that one though lol.

I have a diatom bloom on the sand in my reef. I'm going to drip my pink spot in their to clean up. I don't feed as well in that tank, so he will sift if you don't feed enough. He just makes very little mess. The bullet in my 180 make it look like a blizzard. I am always blowing the sand from the rocks.

Good luck!

So you think the pink spot should sift something, and won't be too messy about it?!

Will a pink spot pair up with a pistol at all?

My new little leather frag came attached to a tiny piece of rock so I used a little bit of putty and fixed to the tip of a bit of my branch rock, looks great only 4 quid as well!

Yesterday I came home of find my girlfriend had bought me a nice new present, some ultra metallic green star polyps, it's stunning, pics don't do it justice, it literally lights up under the blue leds.

Still not quite decided on my wrasse yet any suggestions?

 

[steg22]

male blue star wrasse

 

[steg22]

or white banded possum

 

[Russ_gibbo1985]

Still undecided to be honest though I may not even get a wrasse until I do the living room build so I'm not limited on space

 

[steg22]

white banded are only 2 and a half inches. cute fish

 

[Russ_gibbo1985]

All the possum wrasses are tiny just not a fan of them considering maybe a labouti wrasse.

 

[steg22]

yeah man they're cool, price range?
