Ok, so I have a common Pleco in a pond... He's roughly 6" long now and I need to bring him in for the winter. I have a limited budget and my options are:
A 20 long - I have the hood, light, and filter, I'll have to buy everything else...
or
A 75 gallon - Just the tank, no hood or light...
I need to bring him in ASAP because the nights are getting colder.
I also have an eclipse 6 that houses 6 baby shubunkin/goldfish, a few ghost shrimp, and a golden apple snail. It has a crack in the side - anyone know how well the stuff to fix acrylic tanks works? I'd like to keep using it for my little critters if I can.
Also would really like to hold off on using the 75 gal. if I can. So I guess I'm asking if a 6" common pleco would winter well in a 20 long.
