are brine shrimp good for bottom dwellers??????
They are fine as a treat. Feed the fish once or twice a week only. Be sure to feed them other foods.

Depends on the size of your tank. You're talking about Chinese algae eaters that suck on the glass. These are not community fish. They become aggressive as they mature.

I'd get rid of them. They will harass your fish no matter how you will change the scenery.

There is an absolute abundance of bottom dwelling fish. Which are you interested in? Also, brine shrimp is beneficial to almost any fish. Sucker mouthed fish will probably have trouble to find find the floating brine shrimp, let alone eat it.
