Cory Or Pleco?

[finchfarm]

Its been years since I've posted here.

My Sailfin Pleco died the other day, and I'd like to replace him with some other sort of catfish. I went to my LFS and they had several Cory varieties as well as some albino bristlenose plecos that I would be interested in.

I have a 75 gallon tank, currently with 3 Silver Dollars, 1 Red Hook and 1 African Knife. My pH tends to run low, around 6.0. I don't have algae, just was wanting something that would help keep the bottom clean, though my fish tend to gobble everything in sight within a few minutes.

Would you advise the Cory or the Bristlenose, or neither???

I wouldn't put corys with an African Knife!

I don't know about the compatibility issues that ea raised, but I'd just like to point out you can't get A cory. They need to be kept in groups of at least 6.
