I'm setting up a brand new 30g tank and was curious about peoples favourite bottom dwellers... i'm a fan of playfull fish with character and have enjoyed having loaches in the past. Wondering what else folks would recommend as their favourite bottom dwellers?
 
if you want playful, then go with cories! I love mine.... 2 albinos, 4 regular size bronze, 1 behemoth bronze (her name is Bertha, lol), and 2 corydoras barbatus. I'd say the most active and 'fun' out of the lot are the bronzes, they like to do the wave across the front of the tank, all of them, all the time, lol.
 
I do like my panda cories (and my paleatus I used to have), but my favorites are definitely my clown loaches, but they obviously need a much larger tank. Kuhli loaches would be another good option for a 30

Kuhli loaches are awesome! IME the black ones are out much more in the light than the yellow/black banded ones.
