Pleco For 60Litre?

[XFiSh_CichildX]

is there any pleco i could keep in my 60litre ? thanks

i have a bulldog pleco in mine, they prefer slightly cooler temperatures though

I think 60l is a bit small, try some corys or shrimps.

I know what you mean, they are nice, but the smallest pleco i know of grows to 10cm, which wouldn't be fair to keep it in something that small. I may be wrong there may be smaller....but thats just what i know.

Bristle Nose Pleco's, Clown Pleco's and Bull Dog Pleco's would all be fine presuming your 60 litre is a standard 2 foot tank.

all depends on the foot print of the tank if its a 2'x 1' then you have a few nice options in the peckolitia genus like the L134 which are stunning little plecs

its 2x1 so bristlenose would be fine i hope so

hope so cus it means i could put one or two fry off mine in it hehe

I'll have to disagree, IMO the only plecos suitable for a 60L are Bulldog Plecos/Pitbull Plecos.60L seems too small for a fish that gets to 15cm

too small for some ancistrus but there are a few like the L111, L279, L289, L309, L327, L344, L352, L355, L349,ancistrus claro, puerto ayacucho, portel and triradiatus. though most wont be easy to source personally i would be looking towards hypans like L174, L250, L46 or peckolitia L134, L038, L103, theres also a really nice little plec in the panaqolus genus called the panaque maccus which are perfect for small tanks.
