I have all of them in my 180g ,orange spotted goby,nass,cucumber and I cant get alage to grow on the sand,rocks are covered.

I agree with the nassarius. Problem with diamond or sand sifting gobies is if there is any decent flow, fine sand will get swept up. My 2.5" diamond goby turned my 150g milky white until I finally got him out. However, in my softy tank, he is just fine.

My diamond goby is great in sps tank It is good about keeping sand on the ground,but like serpentman said when mine is sifting uderneath the powerhead is does stir some sand up but not enough to hurt anything.
