Honestly I have only ever bought one pleco from a member on here. I did not use next day shipping either. But I will be for the eques if I get them from wetspot. Oregon is a long ways a way from Illinois.
I have bought a decent amount of plants and some snails with success.
Have you considered micro fish for your 20g long? Not sure how they will fair with the GBRs but I had Celestail Perl Danio in my grow out tank with GBRs.
I actually put 10 Burmese Zebra Rasboras in my 20g long this week after relocating the BN pleco breeding trio that was in there. (not much breeding going on these days...LOL) I need to nurse them back to health due to sunk stomachs but they took to the live food quick.
I got the petite anubias planted. And my supplier for the clover called and informed me it will be another week before they will have some ready for harvest...so 2 weeks before it hits my door. The wife loves the new branch too. Good thing because she doesn't want to know what I spent on it lol.
