I'm still looking for ideas on stocking the 125g tank.
Which species of sand-sifting fish or bottom-dwelling fish have you had the best luck with in your reef?

I like the sea stars for sand sifting.

You mean brittle stars, right? I may add a few but they do stay hidden most of the time and you rarely get to see them. A blue linckia would be nice to have, too.

I would recommend serpent stars. IMHO they are safer than brittle stars.
