How big can a bristlenose pleco get?

Between 12 and 18 inches--or 30cm to 45cm if you live in a metric country. They will do this no matter the size of your aquarium, so don't listen to the guy at the pet store who will tell you they will stop growing in a too-small aquarium.


You have 2 plecos and a catfish Can they live with 3 large goldfish that are about the same size of the plecos and catfish in a 50 gallon tank?

No. Goldfish are cold-water fish, plecos (which are catfish) and your other catfish are warm-water fish. You run a heater in a pleco/catfish tank, but no heater in a goldfish tank. Plecos are also territorial toward conspecifics, meaning two plecos in one tank will fight and possiibly kill each other. The other problem? A 50-gallon tank is only large enough for one pleco, even if they weren't territorial. I would return one pleco, either the catfish--what is it, a bagrid?--or the other pleco, and the goldfish. If you want to build a community around one of these big cats, try some medium-sized tough cichlids like Jack Dempseys or firemouths. I kept three Dempseys and a pleco in a 55-gallon aquarium for years, and they were great together.1st: Plecos are catfish.2nd: Goldfish can't live with any other fish besides other goldfish. 3rd: What kind of Catfish is it? 4th: 1 pleco per tank only!

Goldfish should live with goldfish with the exception of weather (dojo) loaches, bristlenose plecos, or apple/mystery snails.In my 20gal tank, I had a small school of neon tetra (about 6 survived the ride home from petco), an albino pleco, one comet goldfish and a fancy goldfish.

What does the Plecostomus eat?

Depends what species of "pleco" you actually have. I have seen Hillstream Loaches being sold as "Butterfly Plecos" but they're not even catfish! They're sub-tropical algae-eating River Loaches that need a spacious tank with excellent water quality and a strong current.

What organisms are algae eaters?

Just to name a few: Plecostomus. Ask in the pet store if they have plecos. If you have goldfish, Don't get a pleco, as plecos are nocturnal and goldfish are not, whe the goldfish are in their state of rest, a pleco finds the vital protective slime coat of a goldfish quite tasty. they have also been known to suck the eyes out of some fish. they really do prefer a heated tank. Plecos can grow really big, so make sure you have a very large tank. other algae eaters for your aquarium include: Mystery/Apple snails (these breed like rabbits, so get one, or if you have a pet store near you that are willing to take the young snails off you hands, get multiple snails) Cory catfish (these would only survive in tropical tanks, as they are tropical fish).


How can you stop this funky orange mold from forming on your goldfish tank sides and contents?

The brown/orange discoloration is a type of algae. Algea is the result of over feeding and/or over lighting. If you put more food into the tank than the fish can eat in 2 minutes, you are over feeding. Over lighting can be from any direct lighting such as a light strip for the tank or indirect lighting such as room light, sunlight from window or anyother lighting source reaching the tank. Depending on tank size, water temperature and chemistry you could add a pleco to the tank. Gold fish being coldwater fish and plecos being tropical, this pairing will work most of the time as long as a comfortable middle can be reached. Standard plecos or L1's are the more active algae eaters, though they will outgrow all but a larger aquarium in due time. Most pet stores will allow you to return the larger pleco in exchange for a smaller one of same type.
