Anyone else on this site keep plecos? I currently don't have any but in the past I've kept gold nuggets, gold spots, Rubbernose, and bristlenose. Plecos are one of my favorite types of fish so I'm just curious to see if anyone else has any.

No I've never had any cories, but I've always wanted some. They seem like a fun energetic fish to have
