 If I were you I would NOT get a pleco!!!! they will get 3 feet long!! get an oto or a siamese algae eater. they do a good job and they are also small tank friendly. i think a zebra pleco is the only one that will stay 3 or 4 inches, and all the other ones get at least 2 feet. i have seen it myself! big as my arm!  :P
