MorJayy Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Question: I have a juvenile bristle nose pleco in my 30 gal. (its body is 2in but its a long fin, so its like 3in all together.) I also have a 10 gal with molly fry and some yellow cherries that is getting covered in green algae. Do you think it would be okay to move the pleco into the 10 gal for a few days and see if they can help with the clean up? or is moving it not worth the stress of whatever feast they'll get in the other tank?

Dwayne Brown Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 It should be fine bristlenose plecos are very sturdy fish that seem to be alright in stressful envirements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I would think it should be fine. Should bother the fry and adult fish and BN are pretty hardy fish. If uncomfortable a could nerite snails will handle the algae just fine. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
