Waste on the sand.....

[mansiz]

There seems to be waste on the sand, is there any types of fishes, invert or any living marine species that could clear up those waste?

fighting conches is whut I got. unless you got snails in the tank, you can use hermit crabs., but they have been known to kill snails, even when offering empty shells.

Would the fighting conches harm fishes? Btw is it a type of snail?

 

[ReefRaff]

no there harmless: and they look like one, but differant. they usually stay on the rocks and sand..

 

[mansiz]

Btw do the fighting conches consume the waste they vacuum? Or they shoot it out elsewhere?

How are the ammonia levels in your tank? You recently posted your were having problems with ammonia levels in a highly overstocked tank. I would not recommend you add any living critters to your tank until that problem is resolved.

yes they do consume it, but I was also unawhare you were having troubles with amonia. as keven states, you should address this problem first.
