Clean up crew for rtc?

[Dav]

Hi all,
Just wondering if I could get away with putting small cats like Cory's, tetras, ect in with a 28" rtc. Just to help clean up some of the small bits of fish, prawns, ect that end up drifting around the tank in feeding time, only the catfish in the tank at this moment, so nothing else would eat them.

Is it possible to pull this off? Anyone done it before, or is it just hit or miss type of thing?
Thanks in advance.

If you read your sig I think you'll have your answer.

I think you'd need another clean up crew for their little bits that are left if any

He would eat them like tic-tac and tear up the tank trying to catch them.

Sure, its called a Python. You're going to need to just siphon out the debris. Corys arent a clean up crew for the RTC, they are a snack

I take that as a no then lol, it's just when I drop the prawns in you get loads of little bits fall off them, I was trying to come up with a solution so didn't have to vac it out as it get caught on the external filters outlet cage. So a large gibby or common plec is the answer?

I defrost it for him, that's where the bits are from, I only feed once a week, so I don't think I'm over feeding lol.
