Plecos, Plecos, Plecos

what's goin on everyone? I'm undecided as to what kind of pleco I should get for my 125...I'm really sick of scrubbing algae at this point. I've had an L200 before, rubberlips, and bristlenoses...Anyone have any recommendations? I need something that eats a lot of algae, and that I can throw in and not have to feed (it would be nice if it was pretty too). I was thinking maybe a Blue Phantom, but I don't know....Any opinions?

sorry not sure if the fish you are looking for really exists.

Blue phantom works although for better health, supplement its diet with veggies and pellets.

Bristlenose are at the top for eating algae

Side note: It's cruel not to feed any fish(including plecos)

I had a common in my 125 which algae spotless. He died while I was away on my honeymoon due to the ac and power going o.ut. I fed him squash on the side though which is advised. They love it. I would get another except I think my rbp would kill them. They are cheap and available which is also a plu

you wont have a very healthy pleco if you dont feed it :S

Actually for a common pleco, an large albino sail fin is a really nice looking pleco. Outgoing as well.

I would suggest 3 or 4 long finned albino bristlenose plecos, they only grow to around 4-6".
