Pleco question

[CatoeSc]

I have a 40B and want to get a couple of small plecos. Any suggestions? I wouldn't mind if i had a pair that decided to breed, either. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks-

Bristlenose plecos stay fairly small. I wouldn't get common plecos. They will outgrow the tank very fast.

I was thinking of clown plecos. I like the color on those. Would appreciate any feedback, especially from anybody who raised them or had them breed in the tank?

I have ancistris plecos, they are very common I believe. They stay at around 4/5" and are good with plants. Check them out, the albinos are beautiful IMO.

A 40B is a good size for bristlenose. I've had them in that size tank before and they've done fine. The albino longfins are especially beautiful in my opinion.
