Lotus, I've noticed in looking at your tanks that you seem to be fond of plecos, and some of the other members, as well. I've always liked them and they've always been one of the first fish I bought when starting my tanks out, but a few aqaurists and one salesman at PetCo have told me that they produce more waste than they take care of and that when they get bigger they get lazy and don't help much at all.. They end up selling me other stuff, and that's how I got hooked on corydoras.. And I have this other little tiny guy that is a sucker fish-sticks to the side of the aquarium, but I don't remember what he is.. I was just told that he won't get very big, so he won't produce much waste.. Any idea what he might be? I'll try to get a picture.
I was also told that plecos will get huge and that I shouldn't have one in my 20-gallon.
Is this accurate, or have I been led astray.
