looking for a suitable pleco

I have one clown pleco and two otocinclus. I think the clown is beautiful and while browsing through the "L" list i've noticed that the panaque's are all very pretty but i would prefer one the eats mostly algae instead of my driftwood.
i prefer anything under 6 inches as i have a 30 gallon tan. its loaded with plants and around a 6.8 ph 79 temp.
can anyone help me find a suitable pleco.
on a side note the L-066 is beautiful

The genus Ancistrus would be the place to start looking avoied the fish that need specialist care if your running a community tank

The rio orgonabo looks nice http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species_id=2132

but there isnt much information on size and when i do a google search i can't find anything about them.
i dont particularly like bristle noses.. so less bristle is better L183 looks alright. i like the tan colored ones the most so far..

its loaded with plants

They might suffer if you add too many plecos to the tank.

Well i have one that cleans my log, the clown, and id like one to clean the substrate and or glass.. the 2 otocinclus clean my plants just fine. so i was hoping to find another little guy.. if its not possible then thats fine. ill probably get 2 more otos since they are happier in groups. I was just hoping to add another pleco. Here recently ive discovered how pretty they can be!

Try some of the whip tails they like to graze on algae

yup agree with all, also to any new addition that you might consider, be cautious of the feeding requirements for all in your tank. cheers jk :thumbup:

Awesome. Except what is a whip tail?

Hello,

Whiptails are cool looking plecs, flat and long tails, look at http://search.babylon.com/?s=img&babsrc=browsersearch&q=whip+tail+catfish

cheers jk :thumbup:

yeah they arent too shabby. thanks for all the help. I believe i have decided to just go with more otocinclus and eventually make a me a 120 gallon suitable for some big beautiful plecos

Another note, the lfs actually had a beautiful brushy nose specimen that they couldnt get rid of. it has been 4 inches for 2 years now. also a female with very small bristles. Perfect addition to my tank.. once again thanks for helping me out
