L201 Hypancistrus pleco tank size?

Post by catfisher34567 »

Does a single L201 Orinoco pleco fit in an Aqua One Horizon 130L tank? What is the recommended tank size for this pleco? Do they need to be in groups?

For about 6 years, I've been keeping a breeding group (4 adults and fry) of L201 in a "20 gallon (77L) high" tank (24"x12"x16").

Cheers, Eric
