Couple of nooby questions!

At Petsmart Otocinclus go for 1.99, Plecostomus go for 2.49, and Chinese algea eaters go for 1.99. Also Siamese Flying Foxes go for 8.99, but I got mine on sale for 4.49! Corries and other catfish are more expensive. You will have to check at your local fish store (LFS).

I recommend Otocinclus because they do to grow very large and are therefore better at cleaning tight spaces like plastic plant leaves.

In a 21 liter tank a common pleco is going to be way too big. I'm not too familiar with the other variations of plecos so they may be littler but I'd still say go with an otocinclus.

Yeah I was worried about music sending vibrations through my tank but I have an internal power filter and I think that would have to send vibrations through the water. Even airstones would create small vibrations throughout. The only difference I can see is that music would be more erratic. I reckon they just get used to it. I live in an upstairs apartment and the guy downstairs plays his music so loud I can feel the floor vibrate. My fish seem to behave exactly the same and havent keeled over yet.
