I have a 37 gallon tank with 3 angle fish in it... What would be a suitable bottom feeder or algie eater to put in there that the angels would not kill... I would like something that stays rather small...

thanks guys.

You could have some kuhli loaches or cory cats for the bottom. For algae you could have a dwarf pleco like a clown pleco, or you could have a small shoal of otos.

My dad had some cories in with his angels. I also believe anything that hangs out at the bottom most wof the time would be fine. My dads angels pretty much ignored the bottom dwellers.

I love my flying fox in our 20 gallon. You could keep one in addtion to the cories easily. They don't like other similar fish (SAE, RTBS, or other Foxes). They nibble away on algae rocks look for bits of food. Not a great algae eating fish but are fun to watch. They can get to be about 5 inches or so with a plump little body.

I also love my cories.

Kuhli loach is Pangio kuhli
cories (several species so I am going to only give genus) Corydoras)
and otos otocinclus affinis
