I just added a lemon Pleco to a 55 gallon. I already have a green phantom Pleco in a 29 gallon and would love to upgrade him.
Will the two plecos be ok together in the 55?

Lemon BN Pleco? If so, they should be fine together. I have a Blue Phantom and a regular BN pleco in a 75 gallon and they get along fine. They feed next to each other. I do have to put 2 pieces of veggies for each of them though. My SAEs like veggies too.

Not quite sure honestly. It was sold as a lemon blue eyed Pleco. I believe that's a bristlenose?
Picture for proper ID

Yep, that looks like a Lemon BN Pleco. They should be fine together but all fish have their own personalities. I would keep an eye on both for the first few days. My BN is also an 1" smaller than my L128 so that might make a difference too. Blue and Green Phantoms are generally more peaceful plecos.
