Would my clown pleco enjoy buddies?

[gangster]

Ive got a 55g w/ my gf's oranda and telescope goldies. Ive also got 5 chaca chaca catfish in the tank w/ them.

WOuld my clown pleco enjoy some other pleco buddies? He has been in a comm w/ the above listed fish for over 2 years so he knows his way around the tank and where not to be because of the cats. Would he be better off solo or should I get 2 or 3 more clown pleco's to hang and possibly breed w/ him?

bump.....any pleco experts out there?

I wouldn't be fair to answer as I think clowns are very lazy and over priced at the store.

your clown pleco would enjoy some decor to explore

As long as you have extra hiding, even if they like each. Their friendship ends when it comes to hiding.
