I'm posting this because I've seen people posting with "min tank size for my plec" a lot and there's a few different answers. I guess sometimes it depends on the pleco, and I understand a 125 is optimal, but a some of us keep commons in smaller tanks (60-75) with not a lot of problems. If you keep commons, what size do you keep them in/intend on putting them in for life? For example, My pleco Vince was a rescue from a friend who had terrible water params etc. he doesn't grow as much as he probably should (maybe 1 1/2 inches in the past year or so) and I expect him to max out around 14" or less. As such I am totally comfortable with him being in a 75 gallon once I upgrade.
