Im looking for a cheap cleanup crew tankmate.. My rays are pretty messy and seem to not eat the whole fillet.. Whats a good tank mate that will be a good cleanup? preferebly a mid swimmer.
 
Also I have had Geos, and Frontosa in with my rays.
 
Mahseer, african aro work great too

Look no further, Tinfoils all the way!!!

Just ensure u feed sufficiently coz the tinfoils will take away lot of the food u drop into the tank!!! Absolute gluttons!!!

This type of barb eats Ray poo the other types seam to not eat it as well you need 4 or more to stop them being skittish

As you can see by the Gill of the bottom barb even a big 12"+ barb can get jumped and chewed by a Ray
