Question Searching for a Bottom Dweller/Feeder

Long story short, I'm looking for a bottom feeder for one of my tanks. This tank's between two active rooms in my home, and it just doesn't look the same without something scurrying along the bottom of the tank.

So, to liven it back up, I want to add a bottom feeder again. I don't want corydoras, they were my last bottom feeder, and whatever it is has to be peaceful.

Tank stats:
29 gallon freshwater, some live plants
2wpg lighting
pH 7.2
Heated to about 75'F
Established for almost 7 years

Fauna:
A pair of kribensis
6 rummynose tetras
4 cherry barbs
3 small, young platy
Various snails

Decor:
1/4" dark, natural colored gravel
Shale rock beds, not exactly caves, but suitable for hiding/territory
1 large piece of viney driftwood

And, of course, I'd be willing to change things up a bit to make the fish happy. I'm really looking for a group of fish. They can be plant eaters (the plants in there aren't worth much and I'm probably going to put more of a hardscape in anyway).

Thanks
