i ahve a big mouht pleco (i think some people call them the rubbernose pleco)
they get to 5 inches

Many plecos get to be 5 inches

ottos stay very small, 2 inches, but need to be kept in groups

you could also get a spotted borneo if your water is not too warm and has lots of current

Yea BN Plecos are cool I've got 3, they do a pretty good job and dont get too big either

Most plecos stay quite small, 5 inches or smaller

make sure the one you pick up will stay small though.

they do a great job but you don't really see them during the day. Mine hides under a pipe whwnever i'm in the room

I saw him sucking glass once or twice but everything is clean so he's doing a good job. He's all alone in a 20g

[yvez9]

maybe it will, maybe it won't
you never know until they grow
