would some of these cories be ok for a tank with a JD?

can you recommend a bottom feeder that would....that also doesn't get huge....nothing over 5-8 inches

its for a 55g

If you have a planted tank with hiding spots then cories will probably be fine. A good bottom feeder that gets a bit bigger would be either flying fox, red tailed shark, or maybe a small pictus. They all stay under the 8 inch range, are somewhat aggressive but normally not to other fish, just their own species. My brother keeps cory catfish and a red tailed shark together and they all get along fine. The shark hides a lot. For any bottom feeder caves are the best thing in case there is any aggression.
