Looking for a pleco to keep the glass clean in my 90g, would like to buy it small and grow it out.

I will also be purchasing 8 small lown loach and possibly a few silver dollars or maybe piranhas..

Are L083 plecos any good?

Thanks

Plecos should not be bought for algae control alone, if you wany your algae gone buy a scraper. The best algae eater is a bristle nose pleco but you will need to supplement its diet

bristlenose is good and a royal does wonders (royal needs wood). had a 90 and a 125 3 of the 4 sides had algae covering 100% of the glass (I was going for a specific look) added a 3inch royal to each in 24 hours the 90 was clean and in the 125 after 36 hours the tank was clean. very little cleaning in the tank now.
 
any of these any good:

broken line panaque and got some beautiful gold line panaque too. Candy stripe, tiger panaque, L81, blue panaque, snowball Plec, galaxy Plec, lovely bulldog Plecs, bola Plec, green lantern Ancistrus, Zoancistrus (frog Plec) XL butterfly Plec, honeycomb Plec, loads more cant rember them all, come down tomorrow for a look

available from my LFS
