Oscar and pleco tank size

[L021]

+1 for a 125. Probably bigger. A lot of people say that a pair of oscars alone need a 125. 2 plecos in that size tank will fight.

i seem to find a lot of conflicting info on the royal pleco. How big can they get in an aquarium? L190 red eye royal?

About 17" maximum, but usually more like 13-15".

thank you just wanted to make sure the 18 inch width of the tank was alright

125 would be fine for 2 oscars and a pleco

IMO a 110 will be fine for 2 oscars and a pleco.

It's actually 2 O's and 2 plecos, so they would need at the very least 125 gallons.
