What is the best type of goby for sifting and cleaning the sand? I was told a ladder goby works well?

I use watchman's in mine. They sift well and don't swim around with their mouths full making a mess on the rockwork and corals like some gobies do.

Had a Sleeper Goby that went through the sand pretty good.
Negative was he'd take a mouthful then rise up ~6" and spread sand over everything. |

I use two Golden Head sleepers...they do a great job, but do dump sand everywhere....and I mean everywhere.

I had a orange spot goby that did a great job stirring the sand. It would stay in one spot and filter the sand. It never would swim up and dump sand on the corals.
