Butterfly Pleco

"butterfly plecos" or more precise Hillstream Loaches are a sub tropical fish that needs a fast flow and high O2 content. the temp should be around 24C.
They don't need a lot of room, so a 10g would be the min tank but they do kneed the above.
 
i would say probably a 40gal+ you may get away with about a 20gal, but 14cm isnt a small fish :)
 
we have a breeding group of black spotted bristle noses in a 35 us gal. there are 3 in there all about 5" - I wouldnt want to go any smaller.
