Clean Up Crew For Cichlid Tank?

[tmh0921]

In my 2 freshwater tropical community tanks I have MTS, mystery/apple snails, Otos, ghost stomp, and Amano shrimp for clean up. I have a new 75g tank currently set up and cycling which will be a dwarf cichlid tank (Apistos and maybe Kribs), with dither fish (type TBD). I will add MTS as substrate cleaners/aeration. But what will work for algae and other clean up? Would ghost shrimp stand a chance? What kind of algae eater? Not really wanting a Pleco that's going to get huge.

I currently keep Ghost shrimp with my German blue rams and they do fine, but idk how this would go on every situation
but maybe a rubber lip pleco will work
they dont get but about 4" and they do a great job with algae

Bristlenose plecos work as well and max out at about 5 inches. Otos should do fine with dwarf cichlids as well.

Anybody know if otos and tiger barbs get along? Or actually, ignore each other?

I think I've settled on Amano shrimp, MTS, and 2 Zebra Plecos (dwarf - shouldn't exceed 3")
