Bottom Feeders

[redderthanever]

I am looking to get a bottom feeder for my 10 gallon. It has to be compatible with Barbs and no bigger than 3-4". Does any body know of any? Other than the Skunk Botia or Tiger-banded Peckoltia? How about Oto cats? Does anybody know if they are compatible with Tiger Barbs?

Any information on different bottom feeders would be appreciated.


Thanks,

Amy

I happen to like the dwarf plecos, bristlenoses especially. They grow out to the size you need and work like a chain gang all day all over the tank.

Note: I had to edit your color choice. I use a theme that has the same background color as indigo which caused your post to be invisible to me.

lol thats alright

I am only planning on getting 1 bottom feeder. As my tank will be full with 1 bottom feeder and 4 barbs. Can the ones you mentioned be kept as singles?
