no sand ok what.. fishes will pick them up.

if got sand, i use blennies, shrimps or crabs that hijack from live rocks.

eh btw, is that tangs yours?

Seems like my tang don't pick up food that's left on the bottom. Bare bottom means totally no sand.

Only, LR, fish and water

Yes these are my tangs.

My YT sometimes pick up food from me sandbed. My halfback angel oso. While me bluefin damsel will use its tail to sweep the sandbed so that the fallen food get swept up and then it can eat.

There you have it. Not much of a problem actually when most fish will pickup food on the bottom of the tank to eat right?

Not very sure about it, but i have quite a number of Scooter Red and Scooter Blennies (7 of them) in my 3 ft. They have been keeping my sand bed clean since their arrival. Dragonets

Morays have a good sense of smell and are good clean up crew. Of cause I'm referring to the smaller species.
