A pleco,(Its short name)is a type of armoured catfish.They are avaleable to keep in a at least 20 gallon tank and eat algae ,which is bad for your tank.They don not really need food becuase they just eat algea from you tank.Also,they are gentle and can be kept with ANY fish.make sure you have a fresh water aquarium.They naturely lve in the amazon river.Many species are breed.the origanal wild pleco,a o called commen pleco,grows VERY big.Now for its looks.A pleco catfish has a suckion cuped mouth,apart eyes,a wide head and body,and mostly have 4 fins,a large top fin,and a strong tail.Ive heard that males have wider heads than females...?If you have a large tank,it will grow very large most times.So,ya,a pleco is a very good catfish for a tank,and is helpfull too!;)
