Need Sand Movement

[Noob]

Im hoping you all can give me some help on what fish or invert i can put in my tank to give me some sand movement.

Im currently (suppose) to have about 20-30 one inch nassarius snails in my sand bed, but they are either dead or just never move. So im looking for something else that will do the job. I was thinking engineer goby or diamond goby, but im pretty sure that it will just move the sand enough to make its home and not keep the sand clean.

INFO: I have a 55gallon tank with a tomato clown and a small mix of sps,lps, and zoas

those two will certainly help but can reak havock in a shallow sand bed or one that has been established for a while. I had a Queen Conch in my last tank that did a great job of working over the sanbed

[Noob]

Dont think i have ever seen one before.

Sorry.. actually a fighting conch NOT a queen conch

Ill keep an eye out for one.

Do you think one will be enough?

Yep!

The nassarius snails should show up at feeding time. They should all pile to the surface. They do a good job moving sand around.

I dont feed very much since i only have one fish.

I have a fighting conch I can give ya if you want it. I think it's kinda neat looking seeing nothing but a set of eyeballs sticking out of the sand sometimes. I'm out of town for another week so you'd have to wait another week til I get back.
