Something for the bottom? I am planning to keep a pair of bristlenoses in mine when it's cycled.

Definitely some bottom dwellers. A school of corys would be nice to go along with one of the smaller plec species.

For your algae bottom crew, i would reccomend siamese algae eaters, they have a wonderful peaceful temperment and dont even seem to know the other fish are in the tank. They are also considered to be the best algae eating fish . :]

I bought some from here: ( http/www.aquariumfish.net/catalog_pages/...ter_siamese.htm ) and they shipped great. Don't confuse them with the more common chinese algae eaters though, as they arent as peaceful .

The rainbows look like a good choice, but they all grow to different sizes, what kind did you get?

there are

2 x praecox rainbows
2 x boesemani rainbows

i cant seem to find out what the other rainbows are.
