What are some good bottom feeders for a cichlid tank?

[ChrisK]

Synodontis multipunctatus, and decorous are my favorites.

My personal fave... Syn. petricola

I have corys in my African Cichlid tank - they seem to love the cichlid pellets that sink - should I be giving them something else?

They'll eat anything especially bloodworms, mosquito larva and brine shrimps but if your cichlids are mbunas, then you'll have to avoid meaty foods often responsible for bloat cases.

I personally wouldn't dare placing any cories in mbuna tank.

Just looked at Julidochromis's on Google Images and they are cool fish when on a dark background. Nice.
