What is the smallest pleco you know of? I have heard of the bristlenose pleco, but was curious if there are any smaller ones available?

I hear rubber lips are kind of small. Actually i've heard up to 5 in, scratch that. Mine never got too big though.

If you are including pitbulls, Parotocinclus jumbo, then you should add ottos. Pitbull are a bigger relative. A quick look at planetcatfish found several species of otos listed at 1.3" max.

If you're lucky, you can find an albino bristlenose "runt". 1" and no more. I have one and the only way I know he's in the tank is by examining the underside of leaf plants.

But appart from the plecos there are the ancistrus that they are in general smaller, correct? I think they do the same job practically and they have the same habbits..Does anyone know about?

clown plecos stay relatively small too. You could put one in 15gal tank or more. They only get 3-4"
