Ancistrus (bristlenoses) They can attain 6" and look nice. They are readily available and not too expensive.

there are plenty of plecos you can house. check out planetcatfish.com and you will see a whole list of all the plecos. you will most likely be able to find a large amount of plecos there that is able to fit in a 55g with no problems.
