Never thought a RTBS cleans up. I have one, grazes for algae but doesnt actually eat anything, hasnt got the mouth to do so.

RTBS are bottom feeders in a sense that they aren't primarily for eating off the bottom as a Cory cat or pleco would but they are IMO bottom feeders or clean up fish.

No way in hell. They arern't like corys, plecs etc, these are fish that are mid/bottom and mine is always racing for his share of the food.

Sounds alot like mine. In my 120 gallon (60 in x 18 in) I have:

1 13 in Oscar
1 8 in JD
1 8 in GT
2 cons
1 chocolate cichlid
1 rainbow cichlid
1 Raphael stipe cat

I do a 75% wc once a week and never touch 20 ppm in nitrate. You should be great. I like the mix, it has worked great for me.
