are plecos over rated?

I swear all they do is shit up me tanks.

They can be dirty, but if you do regular water changes, it’s not that bad. Plus, your big cichlids put out much more waste compared to Bristlenose Plecos. If you have common plecos, then that’s your fault. Lol

not a fan of plecos myself. theyre messy, boring, and hit or miss in their so called cleaning abilities. i prefer catfish in my tanks.
