Default bottom feeder for my 10gal

Hi guys
can ya help me out? I will be going to my LFS in about a week and i plan on getting some kind of bottom feeder.

I have a 10 gallon with 6 black neon tetras, and a betta. My betta is a bit agressive with the tetras. he loves to chase after them but i have never seen him catch them. I realize this may be a problem with most bottom feeding fish because they will not be as fast as my tetras are.

any suggestions? BTW i am think 8 ghost shrimp. i KNOW my betta will have them ate in a couple of months because thats what he did last time. but i dont mind if he eats my shrimp.

i also wonder, do you know if a bamboo shrimp would be happy in there?

thanks for any help
