Recommended Plec?

[JellyPi3]

I have a 55L tank (about 12 gallons) and in it all i have is a lil' bristlenose and a bootyfull fighter. I wanted to know if i can get another plec in there, maybe something a bit special like a snowball...or do i not have enough space?

You definitely don't have enough space for another plec.

Even keeping the bristlenose in there is pushing things a bit.

Plecos like fast flowing water and need plenty of oxygen whereas fighters prefer little or no flow. It might be difficult to create an environment that suits both.

Stang1 is right, most plecos do prefer fast flowing water. However, there is a pitbull pleco, Parotocinclus jumbo LDA-25 that only gets to about 2 inches. The bristlenose is pushing it though. Thats almost too small for one, so I wouldn't advise getting a second pleco.
