I have a 30 gallon bowfront aquarium set up with 1 rainbow shark, 1 Convict cichlid, and 6 Tiger barbs as well as a Electric Orange Crayfish. MY Rainbow shark is constantly chasing around my tiger barbs and is causing issues, I am considering taking him back to the store and possibly purchasing a new fish. I want a bottom feeder that will grow to be about 4-6 inches that has nice colors and isn't aggressive. Any thoughts will do, please and thank-you.
Aquarium problem.

I'd get some Cory's. Might want to take the convict back also unless you have a larger tank for it in the future

Cory Catfish are a good choice. They can get about 3 or 4 inches or bigger. They tend to get rather fat and look bigger. They are very docile and not aggressive at all. I actually have 2 in with a Rainbow shark and have no problems. They are very social so you need to get atleast 2. They are inexpensive, come in many colors, and live a long time.
What if i took back the cichlid and the shark both and got a striped raphael catfish and a red tinfoil barb?
My Rainbow shark herded TB's in my 90 and now does the same to half a dozen SD's in my 300. 6 years old and does it daily. Just kinds what they do.
The Tinfoil barb will outgrow your tank and the Raphael has potential to as well.....
Then what 2 fish would be a good addition to replace a middle and bottom swimmer that wont grow to large but will still be a colorful centerpeice fish.
I want to have at least a 6 inch full grown centerpeice fish and a 4-5 inch bottom fish. Just to add some largeness to my tank until i get this 100 gallon in a few months.
