Im current keeping about 10-11 pleco in my 180gl tank . Tank is running with 40gl sump and 1600gph pump and a fx5 . I make alot of hiding places for them with dw( manzanita and Malaysia) also some pleco cave . I got a gold xanto, 2x L14 . 2x l177 . 1x L114 . 1x L273 . 1x L240 . 1 goldline royal and one thunder line . They all about 3-5" except the xanto and l273 6" I know I dont have room for fish anymore but my tank look empty with pleco . I just wondering what kinf of tankmate I can put them in . I do like some types of monsterfish like datnoid and gatf also but I think I cant have it with pleco . I also thinkin abouy royal loaches . I tried with geo , frontosa and tropheus but I didnt like them too much . Any suggestion?

I got datnoids,and silver $$$ with my plecos now. I had flag tail and geos they didn't work for me cause they ate everything from plecos.
 
can't go wrong with arowanas! they won't ever touch your pleco's food! :D
 
Funny all I keep are Geo or other earth eaters with my plecos and I find I need to make sure the plecos don't eat their food.

Best tank mates IMO with plecos are earth eaters.

I also like keeping uaru with them.
