Need advice

[RoadRage]

My sister inlaw set up a 125 gal native perch tank. There's 2 perch about 8 inches and a turtle in her tank. She needs some kind of bottom feeder in there. The only one I can think of for cold water is the dojo loach. Any suggestions on what else she can put in there. Thanks

Gotta be carefu what you put. I suggest something big enough for the perch not to snack on

I was worried about the turtle snacking also. Would a crayfish work or would he be dinner?

Yes for a 120g and large Perch (what kind do you have is it sunfish like Bluegill or Yellow Perch?) you can put in Yellow or Brown Bullhead or one of my favorites, Stonecats, Flat Bullheads or Spotted Bullhead.

Bullheads will clean up larger scraps but they are very messy fish that will tax your bioload. They're great fish just letting you know that they will prefer meals to scraps.
