how many pleco's is enough

[anarekist]

i have 2 common plecos and i've had em for so long i wouldnt want to part with them, one i've had since i've started fish keeping so its about 7 years old and about 12 inches, the other about half the size. i just got a 220 gal and thinking about getting different species. as for clean up crew how many would be enough for a tank this size considering the sizes of the ones i have now?

how many plecos do you guys have in your tanks?

Ive got about 17 or so plecos in my 75 gallon. They arnt large like yours. My largest is around 6" and about 7 are 2".

You don't want to know! The question is how many plecos is too much


Can you have to many plecos?

 

[yayfish24]

You can never have enough.

Never too many. I have ~70 >6" and a lot of smaller ones.

pleco is like a drug. once you started collecting exotic pleco, your journal will never end. Over 100 pieces of pleco for me but in many different tanks.
