BlueLineAquaticsSC Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 I want a Pleco for my 90g, something bigger than a bristlenose but not going to get 2 ft long. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan S. Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Green Phantom was going to be my first suggestion, but since that is taken, I'll follow it up with golden nugget pleco as one that I've always wanted to try. Super cool! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lennie Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 All recomendations are great! Sunshine is being my fav from all abovementioned ones like @mynameisnobody mentioned. I wanna add Sultan pleco(L264) to the suggestion list. I think they look amazing, especially with the contrast the white color they have at the end of their fins/tail. I like vampire plecos as well! As a pleco lover, I would also suggest checking for whiptails. Those oddball guys brought so much character to my new tank. Highly recommended. And you can easily home bigger ones in a 90g! And from my only a few days old experience, they are not shy like plecos, although they move around more during the night time, they still spend lots of time outside not hiding. But @Biotope Biologist mentioned they can be shy especially if they are wildcaught. Good thing to keep in mind. Mine are tank-bred. I'm not sure if plecos would push them out of the food. Plecos can be a lil pushy. Also, I highly recommend this youtube channel if you want lots of pleco info and more. She's great. https://www.youtube.com/@FreshwaterIchthyology 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
