oh yeah, i know that plecos are waste producers, but for now it is no problem, because they are still only 1.5" long. i have underground filters running to make vaccuming easy, a hang on the back filter, and i am getting a canister filter in august, so waste is no problem. as for the schools, i will up the schools of fish to about 6 or 7 of each breed.
Thanks for your help!
