help please need a pleco or something else that will clean up some mess in this tank
 
I just have a common plec in my 75 gal. Seems to clean up pretty well. :)
Maybe some cray fish too?
 
why not try high fins pleco 3~5pcs. around 3cm or up each in your tank???

I think i will surely clean your tank!! :naughty:
 
I agree with what Daniel has said, it is difficult to recommend a plec without knowing what else will be in the tank.

however, just throwing out ideas...I'd go with 1 or 2 bristlenose. they won't grow as large and won't make near the mess that a 12" or larger common will make and they should do just as good a job at keeping the algae clear. :)
 
I would say a bn pleco or a rubber lip pleco. They both stay small. And like everyone else said the common plecos make more of a mess then they clean up.

Depending on what is going to be in there, maybe a chinese algae eater would work good.
