nope actually its not a pleco, i would love to have a pleco but i dont think the 20 gallon is big enough. its like real skinny and a light brownish color
i think it is a chinese algae eater. not sure though i will try to get a pic up soon. i know they are good algae eaters to put in with danios because they are fast. but does anyone know if i can keep a pleco in a 20 gallon? i like have to have a bottom feeder in any tank i have and plecos are by far my favorite 
omg, this thread is totally confused LOL.
an "algae eater", is a common name for Gyrinocheilus aymonieri.
a pleco would be called a "pleco" in a fish store.

i know it wasnt a pleco i said i didnt get one because i didnt think one could fit in a 20 gallon. thats why i asked if they could, so does anyone know if i can keep one in a 20 lol?ditto. store "algae eaters" are the chinese algae eaters. plecos would be labeled "pleco". but M|L already said that.
