Hey, I'm having a bit of an algae problem in my 55G, so I'm wondering if I can add one or maybe even a few just to take care of it? I know they grow huge, and I'm a big supporter of "Don't buy it unless you can keep it permanently."
But, sometimes rules can be bent.
Now the only question I'm asking is will a 5-6" commen plec be ok? I've had a 3 inch clown plec get its eye pulled out(
) by these guys, but the plec was small.
I dunno when I'll be near a LFS, but since there's one who has a bit of fish, and buys more fish than they ever sell, I bet I could get a deal to take it off their hands
So will it be ok with a few cichlids?(in my profile, not exactly sure what each fish is though, those are 'educated guesses.'
Thanks -
PS: remeber, I only asked will it survive physically. That's all I'm asking.
I don't want any negative responses...I don't think I'm favored much in the Cichlid section
