Looking for a common Bristlemose Pleco 2-3 inches. Recently lost an 8 inch adapted when the stepson moved out 8 years ago. Wife is missing looking at it in her office. I'm in Annandale and will drive to pick up within reason.

I agree with CichlidAddict. You may want to look at pencil fish. My Beckfordi group of 8 school sometimes in small groups, sometimes together and will occupy the top of the tank away from trouble.
