Detritus

I have a problem with detritus accumulating on the sandbed. I'm sure what to get to consume at least some of it.
I have a detritus slug and it does fairly good job but not nearly enough. I've tried Nassarius snails and some other snails but my sixline wrasse loves having them as a snack.
I'm not big into crabs either. Any other suggestions?

tiger cucumbers or sand sifting stars work well.

If you can see large amounts of detritus on the sandbed I would think you don't have enough flow.

Try increasing your flow and possibly runa mechanical filter of some sort as long as you rinse out the media or replace it often.

Thanks for your advise Willow and Jack.

I'll try changing the flow and hopefully that will clear the area. I used to have my skimmer return pointed there but when I changed it, I guess it got left without any kind of flow.

I thought about getting a tiger cucumber but I'm a bit worried that something bad would happen to it and my fish and inverts would go belly up
