Best sand sifter?

Nice thing about the diamond backs is they don't create sand storms and don't move around when sifting.

I agree. Bought mine from a tank shutdown. He eats pellets, frozen and flakes.
I have some mushrooms on the sandbed that don't get affected by the occasional sand/gravel.
Sometimes I have to feed him separately as my foxface is a hog and eats everything faster than the diamond head. As well, the goby is stupid as he will not "see" the food, rather he indiscriminately scoops gravel here and there, whether there is food there or not.

I have a sand sifting starfish. Does a wonderful job. Has been in my 120 for close to 2 years now.
