I currently have a 55 gallon and was looking for a couple small plecos for it. I ended up getting 1 albino BN pleco and saw the leopard pleco as well. After being assured that it wouldn't get that big I purchased it. Of course after doing some research after the fact I found I ended up with a Leopard Sailfin that gets rather large. I'm not able to take it back to the store, plus it's really cute, it's still small being 3-4" right now, so I'm going to keep it in the 55 gallon, until I get the new tank in the spring. Now onto my questions:
1) will a 120 gallon tank be big enough when it is full grown or should I go with a 125? I've seen various websites say different things, like from 80 gallon to 125 gallon so I want to make sure I get a big enough tank.
2) what would be good tank mates? I'm wanting either a semi-aggressive tank or possibly some cichlids since the pH from my tap is around 8.2.
any suggestions would be great!
