Is a 30 gallon bowfront tank reasonable to keep a pleco in?

It would depend on what pleco.

I saw a cool Bull Dgof faced pleco the other day at an independant fish store. I have never heard of or seen on of them before.

BN would definately work. plus they help clean up algae. go for it!

otherwise theres clown plecos, bulldog plecos, maybe a zebra pleco (very cool looking but expensive i believe)? they'll all stay small enough for your tank.

bn pleco is prob one of the most common small plecos around. there are others but they prob will cost you a bit more.
We were looking for a GN but no one within 50 miles had one, i saw them on line for around 40 dollars plus 30 some odd to ship it, the 2 BN's we have are nice and kind of look like a small sand shark, lol.......:)
