Reaching the bottom of 30" tank

I am currently working on setting up my new tank, its 48x18x30. This tank being 30" deep is alot of fun for someone with only a 27" reach. How would you handle getting to the depths of this tank say if your coral falls??

Would you use one of those grabbers that people use to grab things off the ground?

I take it you're already using a stepstool of some sort? If so, yeah, I would think only something like a grabber.

You can get something like this: http://www.marinedepot.com/PikStik_T...FIMTTT-vi.html

Helps you keep your hands out of the tank as much as possible.
