Can i add a pleco ?

Question

i have 10 neon tetras and 3 small clown loach in my 125 litre tank will a pleco be ok with my fish or will it try to eat them ?:-(

Answer 1

only a bristlenose

Answer 2

why do you need a pleco for? if you must i suggest albino bristle/bushy nose plecos, they dont grow large and usually do good in a community tank

Answer 3

u can but i wouldnt recomend it

Answer 4

no plecos are cool

neons and clowns are faster!

Answer 5

Dont get a common pleco for that size tank, it WILL quickly outgrow it .

They are generally peacefull and fine with the other fish, it's just the size they grow to.

A Bristlenose Pleco would be a good option for tank though, peacefull, tough and actaully do eat some algae.

Answer 6

yeah you can get ANY pleco!

the common ones will grow too large but you can always get another one since they are so cheap.

i personally think the bristlenose ones are ugly but check out the zebra pleco. he only grows to a max of 10 cm and is an awesome looking fish!
