hi guys

I have a 220gal tank, mostly big cichlids and malawis in it, with a blue botia, and a synodontis eupterus. my tank is not overly populated and my water conditions are good and i want to get a pleco. i would like a pleco that gets to a reasonably large size, that is pretty and wont get bullied, what do you guys recommend ????

I like the royal plecos. They are gorgeous! I plan on getting a couple later on.

Royal generate too much waste because they are mostly wood and veggie eaters.. I would recommend something that you can share the same food with the Cichlid.. and same temperature range with your africans..

I'd say the Scobiancistrus is the best fit L-14, L-48,L 362, L368, L253

or the Pseudacanthicus family.. L-114, L24, L-25, L-160

Both family are meat eating plecos.. they still do eat veggie.. but mostly meat.
