A small bottom feeder like a dwarf shrimp or a small snail would be suitable for a 5-gallon tank.
Some suitable small bottom feeder fish for a 5-gallon tank include dwarf shrimp, pygmy corydoras, and otocinclus catfish.
Some suitable bottom feeder fish options for a 5-gallon tank include dwarf shrimp, snails, and small catfish species like pygmy corydoras or otocinclus catfish. These fish can help keep the tank clean by eating algae and leftover food from the bottom of the tank.
A top feeder is easy to differentiate from a bottom feeder because of there mouth bottom feeders will also suck things in the tank. You can tell the difference between a middle and a top feeder because of where they swim most of the time like cardinals and angel fish.
It seems quite small, don't you think a bigger tank would be better?

5 milk jugs becase a 5gallon tank is five1 gallon milk jug
Yes you can put a Betta and bottom feeders together in the same tank. I have two Chinese algae eaters and one male Betta in a 5gl tank and no one bothers each other. The bottom feeders need plants (preferable LIVE) and rocks or something they can hide under and sleep in themselves. I also have a Betta hammock (fake leave with a suction cup to attache to the side of the tank) that you can get at any pet store. My male Betta loves the hammock! One bottom feeder lives in a live plant and the other bottom feeder lives under a rock.
Most suckerfish get too big, but an apple snail (same as a mystery snail) or some ramshore snails are awesome.
If the fish is a bottom feeder (catfish, plecos), the fish will search the bottom of the tank for food and possibly below the surface and will generally dwell on the bottom of the tank. If the fish is a top feeder (african butterfly fish), it will search the upper reaches of the water and possibly above the surface and will generally live in this area as well. Open water fish (tetras, rainbows) will generally live in the middle waters of the tank, but will search for food at all levels. A frightened fish will go just about anywhere as will a hiding or stressed fish.
Bottom of the air tank. Used to drain the water in the bottom off the tank
Yes. Feeder fish just like all goldfish grow depending on the size of their environment. I once had a feeder fish in a 50 gallon tank that was 8/9 inches long when it passed at the age of 7.
At the bottom of the turret and probably where the escape hatch is ( the excape hatch is at the bottom of the tank)
