I still miss this pleco. Such gorgeous colors and was the boss of the tank.

Pleco, of course, is a superior fish.

...A creature of sorts, even.

You know how much we love our little loricariids here at hello pleco…

ANOTHER List of Plecos That Stay Small!

Yes, another! This list has a great variety of plecos (and otocinclus) for every skill level. (A 10 gallon tank is NEVER appropriate for a pleco even if it’s only 1” full grown. Aqadvisor is a great resource on how to properly stock your tank.)

There’s even one I’ve never heard of - Soromonichthys stearleyi that only gets to 1.2”! Previously the tiny hypostominae trophy went to Hypancistrus (Micracanthicus) vandragti at 1.7”.

*hypostominae is the larger, broader category of plecos - a step down from Loricariidae. I’ll have to make a post explaining this another time.
