I am hoping to get a nice pleco or two for my 90 gallon planted tank which will NOT EAT THE PLANTS!!!

Hopefully it is something really colourful, does well with peaceful fish, and stays under 9 inches. I would be THRILLED to get a few that would breed too!

I know this really is asking a lot, but can anyone make suggestions? He has SO many I am not sure what to chose, and I don't know their habits.

Cheers! :thumbs:

Albino bristlenose!

I find the albino variety is more active than the regular type. I have one of each in the same tank and the albino is constantly cleaning day and night! Whereas the regular brown one is hiding all day long and only comes out when the lights go out. Maybe it's because the albinos are more domesticated?? Got my albino from Fairdeal's stock, and will probably get another.

BNs and Candycane (or Candy Stripe, or whatever he calls them) are good at eating algae and stay small.
