Hi everyone, this is my tank which is 30x20x20 (excluding the water filtration system area, it is 20x20x20) and has 1 mini Blue Tang, 1 Mini clownfish and 1 cleaner shrimp. I am currently looking to clean my sand bed. Do you have any suggestions on how to clean the sand bed, using any method or using any creatures? Thank you very much everyone.

I have a chalk goby and a strawberry conch who constantly churn the top layer of my sand which keeps it pretty clean. When I do a weekly clean I use a "hover" which also churns the sand and keeps it clean. :) Great tank btw.
Yo your zoas look so bright! Maybe try nassarius snails too?
Your little reef looks awesome! I agree with Nassarius snails for stirring up the sand since they’re small and super active. The corals are looking happy too, love those pops of color from the zoas and GSP. Just keep an eye on that tang as it grows, nano tanks can be tricky with bigger fish!

Nassarius snails are great for cleaning sand bed. Also adding copepods will help the micro diversity in the sand bed and keep things cleaner
