What medium sized bottom feeder would get along with a convict, firemouth, and a school of giant danios in a 55g tank?

I have 2-3inch Brochis cories with mine they do fine. I thought they would get picked on alot but not really. Or get like a pleco that only grows to 10 inches or less. Possibly some Pictus cats around 4 inches or so.

I have a couple of Striped Raphaels that never cause any problems in my tanks. Plus they can take a beating by larger cichlids. They are pretty common at most pet stores too.

Wow that's crazy money for a bristlenose. Around here they go for $8.99-$9.99 for full grown bristlenose plecos. Come down to the Dallas TX area and pick one up lol.
