I am putting my tiger oscar in a 72 gallon bowfront. Can the 72 accomodate a common pleco? I posted this on the general freshwater too. Can I add any other tankmates?

I would generally just stay away from common plecos... although the name "common" can refer to a couple different species, most end up being the 2ft long poop machines that dont really do anything. JMO but Id just keep the oscar in there

I believe, from his post in general FW, the pleco he is speaking of is a potential rescue.. not something he plans to bye for personnal preferance.

An oscar and a pleco will be pushing the tank to its limits. I'd just keep the oscar in there. You can try www.monsterfishrescue.com to rehome the pleco.
