Perfect Plec

[frozeus19]

I'm trying to find a pleco for my tank. Firstly it has to be small enough for a rio 180. Secondly it has to look good and finally it has to be not too expensive. It may be a tall order but I am hoping that you can help me.

a bristlenose plec fills all three IMO, but not everyone likes the look of them lol

for the cheaper 1's the golden nuggets would be my 1st choice or secondly blue/green phantoms maybe a royal

a zebra plec.. grow to about 4" and needs a recomended minimum tank size of 20g so should fit fine.
can be house with all comunity fish

they are good looking to


not sure about price tho but i think a lot of fish shops have them

zebra plecs are not recomended for community tanks as they dont compete for food very well
they are best kept on their own

not sure about price tho

Only about £100-£200

my lfs has 4 zebra plecs up for sale, £150 each, id love a pair, but think im gonna wait before setting up another tank, 6 is enough already!!

i reckon u shud go for a flash pleco, get a juvi one tho, theyre sooo cute (most lfs by me have adult flash plecos)
