What kind of Pleco?

[Dobber]

Hey guys I was wondering if someone could give me the name of this Pleco, and how big it may become. Thanks.

Oh that's a bummer. Got him from someone getting rid of their tank. I have a pond I can put him in but only have a 50gal tank.

He wasn't in a very big tank when I got him so I was hoping he wouldn't grow too big. :-(

Strange, how long did the previous owner have it? What size tank?

Not sure the size of the tank. He has just got him but is moving out of state. Instead of moving the fish he is just starting over. So my guess is that he is just a baby.

I can put him in a pond was just hoping I wouldn't need too. Are their any that stay small enough for a 50gal?

There are plenty of plecos that stay small enough for a 50g, Bristlenose, Clown, Green Phantom are all species I can think of off the top of my head. There are many more though
