55 gallon, pleco

What pleco species that arnt super expensive can live in a 55 for life? Say around $40 range.

 

[ehh]

My bristle nose pleco fit fine. She also lived to be about 100 years old lol.

Yea I was planning on a bristle nose but that seems to be the usual, I'm looking for something more unique if that makes sense.

I find that the Whiptails around here sell around $10-30, and my fish stores are expensive. They should be cheaper in your area.

 

[ehh]

That makes sense.
Clown plecos are another possibility. They're common but I don't think as common as bn plecos.

How about a chameleon whip tail, Pseudohemiodon apithanos?

 

[xDestro]

Really like the look of the clown pleco but I don't want anything that's gonna eat my driftwood, whip tail is awesome too but idk

Most plecos will likely 'eat' driftwood if it's there. Your best bet would go after a meat eater as they would spend the least amount of time on it.

Funny with your name. My daughter's name is Christine and she is C.J. Wilson

Clown, Bushy/Bristle nose, Chocolate, Rubberlip/Bulldog, .....Blue-eyed stay small but aren't cheap at all.
