Plecos & Ancistrus
Plecos & Ancistrus – Hardy Bottom-Dwelling Freshwater Fish
At Wonderworld Aquarium & Pet Centre, our Plecos & Ancistrus collection features hardy freshwater fish prized for their algae-eating abilities, peaceful nature, and striking appearance.
From Bristlenose Plecos to other popular Ancistrus species, these fish are excellent for keeping aquariums clean while adding personality to the bottom of the tank. They thrive in well-established freshwater setups with hiding spots, driftwood, and moderate water flow.
All our Plecos and Ancistrus are healthy, acclimated, and ready to settle into your aquarium.
