Are there any scavengers of note that do not predate fry or take advantage of fish that sleep on the bottom.
Must be small enough to live peacefully in 5 and 10G tanks. Shrimp and snails are getting boring. I have on BN and she seems fine. But she is in a juvie grow out tank, no fry.
Thanks

Re: herbivores

Racing, shoes and fish. Nothing else matters. Oh, and bacon.

Re: herbivores
I tend to put baby bristlenoses or Sturisoma in my fry grow-out tanks. But that's because I have easy access to them.
I have not seen predate on anything. Sure, they will eat fish that is already dead, as will most things.
Or corydoras - as long as they aren't too big in comparison to the fry.

Re: herbivores
MATS,
Thank you so much!!!! Ancistrus cf_cirrhosus is the female I have, now I know what to find in a male- anybody have one?
So, these are safe with fry? Good. My otos have started to die of old age, I guess. I will get a few more now.
