Plecos together?

[Kawaipoon]

Hi,

I have a 45G tank. I currently have a clown Pleco in there. Is it possible to also get a bristlenose pleco too? Without and aggression?

Thanks,

It depends male bristlenoses can be territorial over hiding spots but since the clown was introduced first then it should be alright as long as you have a good amount of hiding spots

It's should be fine in my 75g I have 6 gibbicept plecos, 1 gold spot pleco and 2 synodontis catfish and I don't get any of my catfish fighting. Also in my 33g I have 4 gibbicept plecos and I don't get any fish. So it should be fine.

That should be alright. Just make sure you have enough filtration to handle the bioload of the two though.

I agree that it should be fine. Just make sure that both fish have caves and hiding places.
