I'm looking to get a large pleco (anything over 6 or 7 inches). Does anyone have any suggestions for finding one for cheap? I don't really want to spend very much money because I feel like the supply of plecos that have outgrown their tank exceeds the demand. Maybe I'm wrong, but let me know if you have any input.

Re: Looking for large Pleco
just my 2 cents, plecos grow pretty fast with food and are generally pretty hardy, so you can get any pleco from lfs or petco/smart and within no time it will be bigger and uglier than you can imagine, lots of people are happy to part with unsightly large plecos, of course i am talking about the common pleco, the specialty one's are a different story65 gallon - ADA 120p - planted
55 gallon - AGA standard - mix cichlid
30 gallon tall - eclipse acrylic - semi-planted
live and let live

Re: Looking for large Pleco
I have a couple that are about 6". You can have one (you can choose which one) for free. I'm near downtown if you are interested. What are you going to do with him, if you don't mind me asking?Scarecrow : I haven't got a brain... only straw.

Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

Re: Looking for large Pleco
I'm not going to charge for for the pleco. It's free. Just be aware that he will outgrow a 40 gallon tank. I'm not sure if a pleco is going to be the answer to keeping to tank clean though.

Re: Looking for large Pleco
So far my best cleaner pleco is my royal pleco (but they are like 20 bucks for a small one at City Pets, and a little bigger ones 30 bucks at HAW)
