Plecos and Sizes

[rill2004]

Can someone out there tell me what are some of the smaller plecos?

If you could give me the names and the max size that would be great!

Thanks in advance for any help!!!

my personal favorite "tiny pleco" (that i own)

planetcatfish.com has a great feature that allows you to search by size "near" "nearer" "same" the link is about half way down the page..

MFK also has its own pleco sub forum thats full of all sorts of info

Depends upon which L-number. I believe that one species gets to 12. The others top out at 8. Either way, not a small pleco.
