It would really depend on the size of the tank and the other tank mates.
I do have a fondness for plecos.

I love cories and plecos... I guess it depends on the kind of cory/pleco.

The queen Arebesque pleco (L260)is my favorite pleco. I'm definitely a pleco person.
Right now I have Otos and bristlenose(I know you don't like them )

Pleco...They have sort of an "ancient ruler of the tank" look.

I don't really like "BIG" fish like the pleco or Algae Eater.Plus you have to have a huge tank to keep them .So i'm going with cory's..they are cute and they fit in smaller tanks. Ottos are awesome too. I don't know about the catfish.

For what size tank? I have a 29 gallon at the moment and would like a small cory, perhaps a panda. If I had room I would get several so that they could school.

I have a rubber lip pleco which is one of the smaller plecos readily available at my LPS. He is cute but very shy. Noticed your name is Plecolover... is this poll because you have plecos?

I love the little Chinese algae eaters. Have a couple of them i my 36G tank and they are amazing little vacuums.

a: pleco

It will always be my fave bottom feeder. Reason being we had ours since I was born. He died when I was 15 or 16.
