do any of you guys or gals' know of a fish like one of those plecostumus things or a snail that would do good as a bottom feeder in one of those large outdoor ponds but in a water dragon cage. i would get a plecostamus but i was told that they can sting a wd. is this true? i just want something to help rid of algae thanks

p.s. im putting in a fluval 104 or 204. but i dont think this will be able to pick up all the algae.

Pleco's don't sting, they just have bony spikes that stick up so your dragon could be poked. Catfish are good bottom feeders and they don't have spikes.

Many catfish do have spike and painful venom to go along with it. I think you mean cory cats which are a common tropical fish tank resident. They do not have spikes. Also chinese algae eaters are good too.
