Tiger Barbs - What Bottom Feeder 30gal

[FishNoob85]

Hello,

Once my tank is cycled im going to be getting 9 tiger barbs to go in my 125l (30 us gall) tank. What bottom feeders are good with tiger barbs and gravel.

Was thinking corys but i read they like sand. also i dont want anything that will outgrow my tank as im not planning on upgrading.

thanks

Bristlenose catfish, great algae eater and my tiger barbs are scared of him. They don't hide away from him but he tells them when they've crossed the line. Bristlenose also grow to about 12 cm and will eat any food that has been left on the floor. A great fish.
