I want a pleco what kind would be best?

  • I have guppies, cory catfish, neon tetras, glo fish, and mollies in a twenty gallon tank.


  • You don't say how many of each kind you have, but if the cories, neons, and glofish are kept in schools of 6 like they should be, and multiple guppies and mollies, then your tank is pretty well stocked as it is.

    Having said that, the smaller the pleco, the better. So, I recommend:
    Pitbull 2-2.5"
    L008 Leopard Peckoltia 3.2"
    Clown pleco 3.5"
    Zebra 3.5
    or Golden vampire 4-4.3

    These may be a bit expensive, but pretty much the best for your tank size.


  • you can get the bristle nose pleco, but with the fishes in your tank, i would suggest instead of getting a pleco, you can opt to get an otocinclus or algae eater =)


  • What do u mean what kind? Like a Rubber lip? a hifin, or a regular pleco. Id get a regular one.


  • A bristlenose, rubberlip, clown, or pit bull pleco would work for your tank.
