Good plecos for planted tanks

I've had good luck with Farlowella cats, and they're pretty cool looking.
If you have Plecos, you should have some good sized pieces of real drift wood in the tank. I've read that Plecos actually eat some of the wood and it helps them get certain minerals, and it will probably help them from being aggressive towards other tank mates, as they're usually just suck on their driftwood when they're not feeding.

Yeah I have a couple pieces in now and will be adding probably 3 more pieces if I can't find a big one lol. Also gonna add some caves for my plecos when I get them. Right now I'm leaning toward 4 small ones.(male and female) since I'm kind of worried if I get l200s they will eat my plants. I'm also trying to avoid really big plecos if they grow fast
I removed C loaches from my planted tanks as I found they where responsible for punching holes in my sword plant leaves .
Nerite snails are nice they won't over populate your tank. .. They require salt water to breed. They keep plants driftwood glass algae free ..
GL would love yo see pics of your tank.
