Bags are available for small species, but we kindly ask that you come prepared with your own method of transportation for larger fish.

Introducing our Pleco squad, the underwater clean-up crew you've been dreaming of! Known to be large and in charge, the common pleco may grow to be 18-24 inches long - a size that is not to be underestimated! To keep these gentle giants happy and healthy, a large tank with adequate filtration is a must. Unlike their common cousins, bristlenose plecos tend to stay on the smaller side, making them suitable for a larger variety of tanks. Consider welcoming these distinct plecos into your aquatic family, each bringing their own charm to make your tank a thriving and visually stunning ecosystem!
