Suitable Catfish?

[SombreroBanana]

I'm currently stocking my 20 gallon long and am wondering if there is a non-pleco catfish that can live alone and won't eat shrimp or small fish. If there's one you can think of, any info would be greatly appreciated.

There are options for catfish for a 20 long, but very few that won't eat shrimp or small fish. Cories are an option.

Yeah, I originally wanted cories, but I have flourite and I'm worried they'll cut their barbels off.

That may pose a problem to all types of catfish as they like to rummage around the sand/gravel and some will even borrow into the gravel.

Okay then. I'll just get shrimp as bottom feeders.
