Is a Tiger Tail Cucumber not advisable for my 40 breeder?

Hi Everyone,
Well, I need something to stir up my sand bed and clean it really well. I've been doing my homework and reading up on some things. I've heard some conflicting information and just wanted to check with you all and see what you thought. I would like to know if a Tiger Tail would not be advisable for my system? It is 65 gallon total water volume. Main display is a 40 breeder though. I have a fighting conch (so cute and full of personality) Margarita snails, 2 banded trochus and only 1 nassarius. I'm going this weekend to get more Nassarius. So my question to you is, would a tiger tail be a good addition? :dance:

Yes.

Lol good addition? Or not advisable? Please let me know. Thank you.

Sorry, hehe I meant to say yes a good addition.:spin3:

=) Okay thank you. You don't think it would grow too big? Just want to cover my bases. Also, it wouldn't eat copepods correct? Just left over food and detritus?

Oh and algae? I'd like the sand to look clean. It's got quite a bit of algae on it right now. =/ Doing my water changes etc. I'd just rather not have to siphon off the top layer of sand because I am breeding copepods right now. I need all of them I can get. =) Plus I have a dsb and I believe you should vacuum them at all from what I've read. I do not go all the way down. Just the surface layer. Let me know. Thank you. =)

Sorry I meant to say I've read where you shouldn't vacuum the top surface layer of a dsb. Just wanted to clarify. If anyone does this, let me know. My sand bed is about 3 in.
