wanted; nice tiny bottem dweller

[wrs]

the bottem of my tank is so empty! Its like a desert in there. Just three tiny corries. I want some more bottem dwellers, but dont want to overstock the tank. Some fish will be moving to the 5 within the next month or so, as my heater is on loan to the guppy fry.

So any suggestions would be appreciated.

How about some different varities or corries, perhaps peppered?

Failing that, otto's would be ideal.

What size tank is it? Khuli loaches are always a nice addition, as well as croaking catfish (luv my raphy).

Is it your 15g? Maybe a bristle nose, 4 chain loaches, or some Ghost shrimp

In have to agree, Khuli loaches get my vote! Though a sand substrate is preferred for the species

my brother has a bristle mose, and its never on the bootem, always hangs out on the top near the filter, sucking on the glass or fake plants.

do you have any links about the croaking catfish or chain loaches?

What I found out is that when they (bristlenoses) are young, they tend to stay off the substrate but as they mature they spend more time on the substrates. I'd say there's about 50/50 chance that they will on sitting on the substrate at any given moment.
