First off, no pleco belongs in a 20. Sorry to bust your bubble, but unless you are planning on upgrading soon then I would rehome him. Also Kuluhi loaches and yoyo loaches are different fish A 20 gallon is good for
Neons
Cories (if you have and sand substrate)
Tiger or cherry barbs might work.

A bristlenose pleco can in fact be in a 20. Does it take up a large portion of space and bioload? Yes, but it can work.

What algae eater do you have in your tank?

Yes Pleco's are fine in a 20 until they get too big for it then there are some pet stores that will take them back. But as the op said they have no Pleco's.

On the other hand it can be tricky putting a Betta with anything else, it is a hit an miss type thing. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Ok I misstated what I was trying to say. MOST plecos can't work in a 20 but I didn't realize it was just an algae eater. Also what is your filtration and substrate?
