Bottom feeder for 40gallon

[Dieboldly]

What's some good bottom feeders for a 40 gallon breeder tank? I purchased some yoyo loaches (2) yesterday and will get like 3 more later. What else can I put in there?

I'm not sure about Dojo loaches, but weather loaches may work.

Goldfish are in there just for right now

I like ancistrus in my tanks. They do a good job of cleaning up leftover food and any algae that may grow in the aquarium.

That is def one I was thinking about. I just don't want anything that gets too big because of the live plants taking space

I'm not a big fan of those guys. They leave strings of poop everywhere lol I have one that is huge in my 125 tank

A school of cordora is a great idea. I love me some sterbae cory's. I am also a fan of ancistrus as well although they may dig up a few plants every now and again as will most bottom feeders.

Are you sure it is an ancistrus? They rarely get over 6 inches.
