Need a fish recommendation

[DonH]

Any recommendations on a reef safe fish that will reduce the number of amphipods in my tank? The floor of my BB mostly SPS tank literally comes alive when the lights go out and it looks like they are munching on some of my new additions like a frag of micro and a small colony of tubbs blue. From what I've read, they are not supposed to, but I'm seeing the outer edge of my micro missing when it was otherwise healthy the day before adding it to the DT.

They don't seem to bother the established colonies but the new coral are just covered with them at night. Is this normal?

A medium-large size goby might eat the critters, but I am not sure if he would be happy BB.

A six-line wrasse would make short work of them I suspect, but they can get kind of feisty so they likely will pick on small or peaceful fish if you happen to have any in your tank.

My court jester Amblygobion rainfordi is small and doesn't go overboard on pods like a mandarin will (he's about 1.5" and I've never seen him grow (or any bigger than him). He occasionally digs a tiny scoop of sand and sifts it, but only if he's out in the "lagoon" of my tank away from the rock. If you feel your tank can support him (i.e. the pods will reproduce quickly enough once he breaks the initial population), I'd say give them a try. Very colorful, "cute" fish. Mine has a lot of personality when I can find him . He doesn't have a "home," wandering around the tank aimlessly.

I added a Rainfordi about 3 weeks ago to my 120G.
I haven't seen it since.
Very peaceful tank but lots of fish and hiding places..
I had assumed it didn't make it but it was healthy and eating in a qt for a while.
Think it might still be alive?

Sorry for the hijack.
