Planning a "Biotope"

Yep, the tank will be densely planted, at that point they usually become pretty hard to overload.

For bottom dwellers I'd look into kuhli loaches, they are the only Asian bottom dweller I can think of.

oooh, I like Kuhlis!! Thanks for the suggestion!!

This tank is going to take a bit to set up, since the plants are all going in first.

What do you think the would be the best substrate for my plants?

EDIT:
I think we just found a way to get my fiance excited about this biotope tank! He squeed when I showed him the Kuhli loaches, he's been wanting some for his 30 gal, but didn't know if they'd eat his shrimp.
