Indeed. Common Plecos grow HUGE, Bristle nose plecos "only" grow to about 6" though. However Otos are an equally good algae eater and only grow to about 1.5". A pair of pygmy cories or other smaller varitiety would do well in a small tank of say 5-10G with a betta as well. If you have a 10G a small shoal of smaller tetras or minnows would do nicely as well.
