I have a LFS nearby which carries some exotics such as royals and and galaxy plecos so I have some choices when it comes to selecting the right pleco. BTW what do you all think is the biggest pleco that can live comfortably in a 55 gallon tank?

I have a new 55 gallon tank with no fish in it. After I cycle the tank for a couple of weeks, I was wondering which pleco would be best for the amount of space that I have. Right now I'm leaning towards an albino chocolate pleco. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

Thanks!

so how big do you think my pleco will eventually become?

I have that same exact pleco and it was identified as a L001. My pics are in the link for comparision.

I do not have the heater on and the tank is not in the sun but I do live in Texas.

the temp of the tank is 80-82 degrees. The pleco gets fresh veges every day.

Its been 4 days and I went out and bought Aquarian shrimp pellets and Tetramin catfish tablets. I put some shrimp pellets into the tank last night and they didnt go for it. Then I put some catfish tablets into the tank and they did not go for it either. They just kept swimming up and down the sides ...

Yesterday night I bought two spotted corys. They are in a ten gallon tank with a 11cm L001 pleco. This morning I put some tubiflex worm cubes into the tank and the corys ignored it. Then I tried some algae tablet and again ignored it. They are very active and swimming up and down against the sides ...
