10g Plecos?

[oliesminis]

Are there any plecos well suited to a 10g tank? ive heard some grow to about 3 inches but i dont know which ones?

Bristlenose plecs, Adult males 4-6 inches. Females are smaller than males...but there reccomended for around 30 gallon's us

30 Plecos 8" and under.

List compiled by a tff member. Don't know how many would be small enough for a 10g but it's a good starting point.

Pitbull Plecs look like the most likely option tbh at an average size of 2" according to the guide.

I thought bulldog plecs got to 5inche's?
only thing sim i can think is oto's

Pitbull Plec <--This is the one I meant

and

Bulldog Pleco <---Not this



Also, gotta agree, otos seem to be a good alternative for a small tank. I've never kept any personally, but I've seen lots of people with them.

I'm not useful enough to know where to buy them from...sorry. lol. It's just I was toying with the idea of buying a plec awhile ago and was looking at some of the smaller varieties.

Try asking your lfs about getting some in, see what they say, try tri-mar online see what he has, look on classifieds or ebay
