Can I have a green phantom pleco in my 55 gallon? It has two angels, tetras, and pristella. It runs on a fluval 407 and has been established for about 2 yrs. I just want to make sure it can live here comfortably. Not sure if the tank is too small. Thanks!
 
I would worry more about are of the floor. They green plecos ive heard can get up to 7 inches so make sure it has enough room to turn around easily with all the decore
 
If it's a standard 55 gallon ( 48"L x 13" W x20" H ) , the tank is not too small. As Sesom commented, you want to make sure you have room for him to swim along the bottom and places to hide at an adult size of 6"-7".
