Stocking Plecos In 125

[LIflynn]

I currently have a royal, gold nugget, vampire and common pleoc in a 125 gallon tank how many other plecos could i put in the tank. i was looking to get a mango pleco still and hopefully another any suggest what the other pleco i get would be.

L025

Simple and easy. Not sure how many more you could add though, as i have no experience keeping pleco's any higher than single specimens.

Lmao, after reading that back just now i can only hang my head in shame. That is NOT meant to be read a certain way. Lol. Merely agreeing with what was said Lol

EDIT I don't think you should add more plecos, you have 4 plecos which all grow huge and in your 125 gallon tank, the 4 plecs would have just over 30 gallons of space  each which isn't fair on the fish.

Completely agree with the above, the tank tbh has to many potentially large plecs as it is, they also vary quite considerably in care and requirements.

I would remove some and stock more suitably rather than ask about adding yet another potentially large plec.
