Recommend: Sand Sifter/Stirrer
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
		I have a question or actually, I am looking for a recommendation.  I have a 65ga aquarium hooked to a 30ga of sump/fuge.  Lots and lots of live rock, mostly in the sump/fuge. 
 
The sand bed in the display tank is only about 1 inch deep, just enough to cover the bottom.  I have lots of flow through the tank, except in the odd area.  The unavoidable nooks and crannies created by the rock. 
 
I had an Orange Spotted Goby, did a marvelous job of turning over my sand bed.  Sadly, there just wasn't enough sand bed for him.  A friend of mine offered to take him but the shock of the move along with the severe starvation he didn't make it. 
 
This leaves me wondering, what critter/critters can I put in my tank that will help me keep the sand bed stirred and turned?  I have been doing it (stirring the sand, sickos) myself with a turkey baster, but I don't want to be doing this forever.   
 
My tank obviously is not big enough for a Goby so anybody got some good suggestions? 
 
As a side note, the tank only has a couple small SPS and LPS frags, GBTA, 2 Percs and a Lawnmower Blenny.  Everybody is doing fine.  There isn't anything terribly wrong with sand, except it turns a bit brown after a few days if I don't maintain it.  My Goby kept it gleaming white and I miss that. 
 
Thanks for the input.
