Can Plecos Be Put in Planted Tank?

[adman76]

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?

Oooo...looks kinda remote on the map for Gan's Place.

Any car sponsors by chance?...hee hee. Will see my friends whether they are free or not to go for some spinning. Heh Heh.

Observation is always the best part of learning.
