No. There are over 800 different species of Pleco, all of which are tropical fish and huge waste producers.

Also, some species of Pleco will not touch algae or veges and may decide to suck off the slime coat from the Orandas, leaving the Goldfish open to infections and parasites. Once a Pleco gets a taste for slime coat, it gets addicted! So no Plecos with Goldfish!
