That will be fine. My wifes 55 is a fully planted tank with currently my 5 L200s, my L190, and then her 2 whiptails, 14" Chocolate, 6" adonis, 5.5" L264, no problems other than the big chocolate likes to uproot plants.
should i get a 2-3 inch L200

it'll be ok, good luck doing the planted tank, i personally could never get it to work. Much depends on the plecos you have, some will eat plants, others wont touch them or just graze the leaf for dead matter or algae. good luck
they are omnivorous, so eat both veg and meat, so you should provide both for a healthy pleco, you may find the cucumber gone by morning. there are plenty of other substitutes, mango, shelled peas, broccolli, potatoe, zucchinni, frozen lettuce etc. they are nocturnal so i always feed the pleco tank before lights out at night.just pick up a L200 and a L201 , tried to feed cucumber, didnt manage to entice it, man..., throw some bloodworms , the L200 was dashing towards it . predatory pleco?
The L200 was probably just not offered a variety of foods like that at the LFS. He will eat cucumber or most any other veggies.
The closest one to my house uses zucchini and cucumber. The other just uses Aquadine algae wafers.
Yeah the closest one to me discovered that the plecos will eat cucumber and zucchini, and it is so much cheaper so they just do that.
