Has anyone kept a clown pleco in a 2.5 gallon successfully doing a weekly water change kind of like betta care or is this a bad idea?? I have an empty 2.5 and I wasn't something different other then a betta,goldfish or minnow. I was thinking possibly a dwarf frog. Anyone have any thought??? Thanks
 
No, a 2.5 is too small for a clown pleco, or any type of pleco for that matter. Pleco's create a huge mess and no filter made for a 2.5 could handle it. I hope you also know that clown pleco need driftwood, so a large part of the tank would be dedicated to the wood.
