I want a pleco that doesn't get huge but gets about 6-7 inches. I have a bulldog pleco but I want another one that gets a lot bigger.

Yes it will. And both those are going to e EXPENSIVE.

Well unless your filtration is fantastic, the pleco will cause a massive upswing in everything including nitrate. Also a 7 inch pleco may not be that great of an idea since that bioload in particular will be huge. But if you wanted to do it anyway then a gold nugget pleco, bristlenose, snowball or a rubber lip are your options.
 
Also don't bulldog plecs get to 5 inches anyway? IMO the bioload will be to high.
