I think that tank is nominal 50 US gallons. I use 40-gllon longs, that tank has more area and should do just fine.

do you mean Bristlenose Plecos? If so, I have 1 male and 2 females that breed crazy in a 20 gallon tank. I raise the fry in a 10 gallon..

Stores around here sell them for 10.00-20.00 dollars each. They are hard to come by in the LFS. The LFS pays me 2.50 per baby. The breeders in my area sells them anywhere from 3.00-10.00 dollars each. They grow slowely!
