Rubbernose pleco info?

Post by shamgar1 »

My LFS has some Rubbernose plecos (I think they are calling them Rubbermouth) for sale for $5. I have one bristlenose, and one clown pleco. Does anyone know how these would get along with my group? How about size?
Thanks,
Shamgar

You might want to look here. They are somewhat territorial, but usually coexist peacefully with tankmates.
Most max out at 4" or so.

Ive got the exact same thing as you. A BN, clown and rubberlip. They are fine together the clown shares a hiding spot with the rubberlip.
