A truly monster pleco!

i've never bought a pleco for the 'cleaning' feature. IMO that feature doesn't exist.

Yeah, I know, but people with giant cichlids (such as oscars) who keep a single pleco with them often do get them for this purpose. Like all opportunistic algae eaters, when they are young they do the best job...but an adult CAE or giant pleco would much rather eat even a meat wafer!
