    Default Hey yo

    Just registered. Just went from a 10 gallon to 29 gallon freshwater tank. Have a pleco that's getting pretty big(maybe still not a big enough tank?) a Molly, couple tetras, and an albino frog. Anyway, I can already tell this place is going to be pretty helpful.

    Welcome!


    If your pleco is a common pleco you are correct, you need a much bigger tank still. They can grow to be 2 feet and most people are going to recommend 75 gallons +.

    No Message - korith Just a 'Thank you' penguin to a water treatment guy :-D. Clean water and sanitiation is a CORNERSTONE of modern civilization that people take for granted and don't think twice about & I felt that way about it before I had fish lol. Thanks to my HS Hi - 850R because I LOL'ed at your single neon 90 gal show fish - ddavis1979 For the help on CO2 and plants - Greentoads41 Great looking tank you have! - ~firefly~

    Welcome. As WT suggested it would be best to determine what kind of pleco you have in order to know what minimum tank size it should be in.

    Common. So what can I do with it? I can't get another larger tank right now. Would have waited on a 29 gallon but found one 50% off.
