Ghost shrimp are great scavengers. And I love cory cats - there are so many varieties to choose from, and they show a lot of personality and activity.
I like otos as well. A very cute fish that also (in my opinion, though others disagree) does best in groups.

The best clean up crew for a ten gallon is an algae scraper and a gravel vac along with some elbow grease. This will free up the space in the tank for other fish since the space is so limited in a ten gallon tank.

Elbow grease and a gravel vac on water changes.
