you could try a few ottos or a Bristlenose Pleco would work.
check out this link for a little debate.

Hi, Bristlenoses are out there! Just got back from one of my fave retailers (The Fish People,within Grosvenor Garden Centre) and they had young Bristlenoses of various sizes from £3.99. Not sure they could ship them down to Warwick but give em a ring and see! Their number is 01244 680640. If they don't ship then they may tip you off on their importer? Hope this helps, Ben. :D
