    Hi!
    Can we put Plecos (suckerfish) like zebra plecos etc in planted tanks?
    Would it destroy the plants?
    Thanks![]

    Hi!
    I was looking at the rayon vert website (www.rva.ne.jp)
    and I saw a lot of gorgeous plecos.
    I saw one called Queen Arabesque.
    So, beside the zebra, can any of these plecos be placed in a planted tank? So, for the Zebra pleco, anyone ever tried putting it in a planted tank? What PH does it require??
    Oh one more thing, where can I find some of the nicer otocinclus. I saw some otocinclus like the tiger otocinclus, and etc etc.

    quote from Mr. Gan "you can try and if they do leave your plants alone, do tell me, so I can let my other customers know about that" []

    some of us, love to have different pleco in our planted tank, and because some of the species have craving for green, I don't think anyone will try

    yes, some members do keep zebra pleco in their planted tanks.. they will leave your plants intact.

    for exotic species of oto, u got to hunt around.. some recommended place will be choon sua at beauty world, Gan (he has zebra oto), lor halus?
