Hi all

What kind of pleco is the best when it comes to eating algae ?

Thx
Kasper

Otocinclus are the best smaller plecos.

bristlenoses (Ancistrus) are the best medium sized plecos.

if you want something a bit more exotic, the whiptails (Farlowella, Hemiloricaria and Sturistoma) are also very good.

Hi depending on what type of algae you have!!

not a Loricariidae nor a catfish but I found the Garra to be quite effective...not so common which is really sad...
Cheers

bristlenoses, smaller ones are best, they work harder at eating it. The larger ones are more lazy
