Go natural! I'd suggest adding a few Nassarius and Cerith snails instead. Combined, they'll do a great job of both scavenging and gently turning the sand bed without harming your pod collection or macroalgae.

Besides the Nassarius are great fun to watch as they cruise. Then the Ceriths make the nightly crawl up the sides like Night of the Living Dead A 'fuge can be entertaining as well as functional.
