Bottom dweller suggestions for a 55 gallon Aquarium?

I already got a kubotai from my lfs and need to get him a school (they only had one left).... no more room for loaches, dangit xP

Yeah, these guys were the last two at mine.

Sini, what have you found to be an ideal number for them to be active and always out and about. They seem to hide all the time!

For most loaches, including kubotai, in my experience it's a minimum of 5 individuals. And more loaches of the same and different species tend to bring them out even more. Never such thing as too many.

I have a rainbow shark in my 55. It's a cool fish but not particularly peaceful.

They are firm believers in "If I can't see you, then you can't see me"!

I got them two more buddies today!

The original two have become quite friendly and are now out all day long! They really are quite interesting!
