what gobies sift sand

The Diamond Goby is a major sifter, and both of the Yellow Watchmen I've owned would often be munching on it.

 

Keep in mind that fish who feed primarily from sifting sand (Diamond Goby) will have a hard time in a new tank that doesn't have a lot of life in the sand for it to eat and will require special attention regarding feeding.

Most true sand sifting gobies get large and don't do the best in small tanks. If you want some sand sifters, look at small conchs, nass snails, pistol shrimps, and hardy inverts.

I had a diamond goby in my 15G. Very entertaining fish. He ate pellets, so no worries about there being enough stuff in the sand for it to eat.
