Pleco help!!

[Dr.B]

Hi, I'm Dr.B i am not usually in the plecostomus section but i am today. i am looking for a small pleco that i can fit into a 20 gallon with a breeding pair of apistogrammas? i was thinking of a bristlenose but it just seems too bland. But if the bristlenose plecos are the way to go. Can i breed them as well as the apistogrammas? But if i can i would like something that would destroy the breeding mood for my apistos. but i need some one to do maintenance. I took my Normal pleco out of it a couple days ago. he keeps switching from my 75 to my 20 because i don't have a pleco designated for my 20. so i need a small interesting pleco that i could possibly breed? any suggestions? Thanks in advance Dr.B

Look into the hypans they stay small are not to aggressive. Like the L66s and L333 and L46s and L102s and L260s just to name a few. They are not overly tough to breed either. And love and need a higher protien diet.

Something simple and not overly expensive, i would say Clown pleco and they small too.

How about a couple of L400s or L450s ? Both are hypancistrus, stay under 5", and are not difficult to keep or breed.
