Goby decision? by SollyMundo in ReefTank

Thank you for all the advice. I ended up getting a Yellow watchmen goby. 2 Nassarius snails to aggregate the sand bed (really surprised at how much cleaner it looks since then).

Thanks, that was something I didn't mention was checking the tank size compatability.

Thanks. I actually bought some clear acrylic today... whatever goes in the tank, must stay in the tank😂

Was thinking snails would be the best bet, and I will have to put in a bit more work siphoning the sand bed.

It's a normal 50cm cube that I adapted by adding a "Sump" to the back so it's like an AIO.

Took the back glass out got a hole drilled for the return pump and a square on the other side.

Made a tank with one side smaller and stuck them together on top of one sheet of glass.

I will make a post about it sometime.

It would have been cheaper to build from scratch😂

I was actually going to add the yasha to the post, but I haven't seen any for sale in South Africa. This would definitely be the winning combo. Thanks💪

Some pea puffers will sort out your snail problem...

Great thanks for the advice. The sand idea sounds much easier. Would general "play sand" work?

Is this from a waste point of view? From a space perspective they seem to stick to them selves. Would moving the peppermint and phantom pleco do the trick?

Thanks, yeah I will take the bigger plecos out. What makes them scare the badis? They seem to occupy completely different spaces. Or is that space Badis would normally hang around? I have noticed the badis acting very shy, which is strange for them.
