What's a good pleco/bottom feeder to go with my fly river turtle. She is by herself in a 30g tank. She is 4.5" or so. I want something that will not outgrow the 30g tank, once the turtle outgrows the 30g the bottom feeder will be sold. I want want something cool looking, maybe a gold nugget pleco?
Any suggestions?

I asked charles this question before through pm's. And he told me that a watermelon panaque would be suitable with them. Although right now I only have a leopard sail fin pleco

I want this for eating leftover food as the FRT is very messy.
