Suitable Bottom Feeders

ShinySideUp · Dec 21, 2011

I have moved all my bottom feeders to my new tank and stocked my old smaller tank with a shoal of phantom tetras. I just need a couple of bottom feeders to clear up the stuff that gets through the tetra net as they won't eat anything from the bottom. The tank is a 120 litre with internal filter and I want something that won't outgrow the tank. I don't want to use Cory's as I would feel the urge to put them with the others in the big tank. The substrate is fine (1-2mm) gravel with a couple of plants. Suggestions anyone?

Kuhli Loaches?

I have Kuhli's in my large tank but in the small tank I don't really have the hiding places that kuhli's would like. Having said that I start to wonder about bottom feeders that won't need much in the way of hiding places (there are one or two places) and I think that maybe there aren't that many. I am trying to keep the swimming area uncluttered for the tetra's but I suppose a few small peices of wood wouldn't do any harm.
