    i've kept 5 in my 125 with no problems, 2 or 3 should be fine for a 90 IMO. i see no problem with doing more though as long as you feed them properly

    If you just want them to clean then 2 can do the job.

    As a rule of thumb you can keep 1 BN pleco per 20 gallons. I'd say you can keep 5 in the tank if it's planted. Right now in my 100g tank I have 10 or more BN plecos and they are getting along just fine. Some of them are going to be rehomed as breeders soon and I realize it's just a temporary thing to have that many in there.

    Where did you get your Goldspot dwarf Plecos from? I have never seen those before and would love to have a few for me tank.
