Remember that that sandbed is a waste processor, the last stop for gravity, and as important as your live rock. If you see waste starting to pile up on it, you are doing something excessive in feeding, or you need some critters like fighting conchs (actually peaceful to all but plate coral) or sandsifters like the YWG, but you do not want those critters early, because they will not have enough food for their forage. Also do not freak if your YWG goes invisible for weeks. They're shy and will want to scope things out. They're also curious, which is what will ultimately bring them up front and center like some grumpy old man protecting his 'lawn' from all comers.
