I have a 10g tank housing a small turtle and a few minnows, and I want to get a bottom feeding fish that will clean the gravel of waste & uneaten food.
What do you guys suggest? The gravel I use are pretty standard aquarium gravel 2-5mm in size.
Does fish like chinese or siamense algae eater also eat the waste & stuffs on the gravel? or they just eat algae? (my tank doesn't have much algae)
Also, I prefer fishes that are cheap ($5?), doesn't grow too big, and preferably a fast swimmer to avoid being caught by the turtle.
(I had 5 minnows in there for over 3 months and the turtle can't catch any of them, but then he is only 1.5-2" in size)
