detritus

[pounder]

I am looking for a method to control the debris on top of the sand. During water changes some gets removed but I am looking for a way to get rid of it between water changes. I have turbo snails which clean the live rock and glass. Would a reef safe star fish help? Or would some other organism be better. I have very little algae in the main tank. Lots in the sump. The tank is 120 gallons and is 4 months old.
