My misses has just purchased a fluval edge 46l, at our LFS, they have these awesome golden nugget plecs at 3-4', and my misses loves them!, now would you be able to put one of these in a fluval edge and it'll live comfortable?, if and when it gets bigger it will go in my juwel vision 450 so no worries there.

Could I do this? :/
 
They grow to about 6 inches.
 
I assume you meant 3-4 inches, or did you mean 3-4 cm?  I don't think a 46L is big enough, but the 450 would be ideal!
 
Most of them are 3-4 inches, but there's 2 at about 2.5 inches, growth rate isn't that quick surely? :/
 
Toodle on over to planetcatfish.com and put "gold nugget" into the search box at the top right and you get back two species. One gets about 7 and the other about 9 inches.
 
I suggest you read up on both before you decide. The 450 is fine for either, the 46 is not suitable for either. Plecos make a fair amount of waste.
