Need A New Pleco

[flyhawk]

i have a common pleco that is getting to be 7 inches
it is scaring my bolivians and giving off alot of waste
i would like a smaller pleco that looks a bit more colorful than the normal
idearly love my old pleco but he is becoming a nuisance
he is also ripping up alot of new plants

What size tank is this for? Assuming that it is around a 25g+ there are a lot of options a nice small one that isnt crazy money at the moment is Flash Plec L204

L144 lemon bristlenose is nice and colourful and only grows to 4 inches max

well its a 55 gallon with angelfsih small tetras
2 rams
pearl gourami
heavily planted
and i like the flash pleco
is normally alot at petstores(prices)
is it stocked at alot of pet stores?

Its not really common but its quite easy to find, prices vary between £10-£25 but thats the same for most plecs. Quite a lot of plecs could work in that tank really. Any of the Pecklotia (sp) like L135 etc I guess it depends what the stores have in and your budget.

Where abouts are you based/which stores do you normally go to, maybe someone from around there will be able to help you out.
