There are some across the street from me.

Is there any prep work I should do on them before putting them in the tank?

Re: New pl*co Tank

This tank is a 55 gal; for now all the plecos are crammed into it.

I will move the larger plecos into a 125gal 6 foot long tank within a month or so.

I already have a FX5 and powerheads waiting in their boxes for the 125gal when it comes.
