You're close to your limit now but cories would be an option. For a plec I would suggest a clown plec. After seeing just how big bristlenoses are I don't think that they're suitable for a 20g.

Get 6 Corydoras & they'll eat any left over food & keep you watching the tank all the time.

Remember that they don't vacuum & make water changes, so that's your work.

Bottom feeders do not clean your tank. If there is leftover food on the bottom, just feed less.

cories will be nice...small ones...as someone said...if u opted to get these gems..make sure to provide them fud as well..they shouldnt be just scavenging for it.

feed less and less frequent to keep the water "live-able".
