If you could only have one pleco in your tank, what would it be?

But even with the gibbiceps I would have to choose between the albino and non-albino gibbiceps. I would also like a rhino pleco. They are all closely related just incase you didnt know.

L001 grows to 8"-10".. No small tank for them! Mine is 10 inches and my 60 gallon might be a tad small for him...

Congrats on your new goldie. You will love him. Try sticking some frozen bloodworms in the gravel in front of where your goldie hangs out. Mine absolutely loves the frozen bloodworms (live ones too, but they are harder for him to find since they burrow into the gravel a bit). Mine also likes cucumber and zucchini. Mine will not eat algae wafers. Good luck with him. I hope you can post some pics of him.

I know L-001 gets about 10" just saying smaller tank since a gibbiceps gets 18" and a rhino gets 12". So it would be a smaller tank not like a 20 gal or anything. Just a smaller tank then the gibby is what I was trying to get at.
