I didn't know the Acanthicus adonis is also called whiptail pleco.Bottomfeeder;2744876; said:whiptail as in adonis? as in

I am referring to L010a, Sturisoma panamense, Rineloricaria parva and Farlowella acus, a few of those I can mention.
Glass catfish grow to 6 inches max only and are community fish. You haven't answered my question for tank dimensions yet.AU_Arowana-RG;2743223; said:
See these sales threads. Please double check all sizes before you buy and be sure you can accommodate the pleco permanently.

Keep the glass catfish with corydoras and small plecos.Death Pony;2747129; said:
Actually Jags will get about 50% bigger than that and are not suited for a 29G tank, personally I'd be looking for pictus or something like a wood cat or I have a Leiocassis poecilopterus in a small tank and he does very well.
SA bumble bee, Banjo catfish, moth cat, oil cat etc
Glass cats need to be in a group, if not they are shy and insecure.

Are you sure they get that big? Most info on the net says 7-10 inch. Ive questioned a few actual people who've owned them and all have said they never got over 7 inch.
Im not trying to insult you or anything, Im just asking a curious question. I also agree, a jag cat is not suitable for a 29 gal.

Most sites I see say 8-10". Even if a jag doesn't achieve this size, any fish significantly smaller than it will be a snack.
To the OP: SA bumblebees are great. I keep several in a 37 gallon with 2 bristlenoses and a L-201 and I see them all the time. Otherwise, I would consider a small group of woodcats.

My point is, I would rather hear that a fish reach that size by an actual aquarist who owned one of that size. Alot of times sites on the web are inaccurate or copy and paste from one another. Im just kinda curious thats all. I would like to hear more from people who have owned them. The few I have talked to said no larger than 7 inch. So I will believe that until theres proof of one larger.
But back on topic, bottom line this catfish isnt suitable for this tank.
