Perfect tank for the plecos. I'm sure they love the algae. I agree the eclipse is a perfect grow out tank.

With plants you will most likely not get the algae growth you have now. I find with small tanks you must use a heavier sand or it's always getting in the filter. Small tanks are fun to do plants in IMO.

You can find large grain sand in many sites. If you shop around you can usually find a deal.

Small crypts and a few stem plants would do well in there!
