Looking good
The dwarf suckermouth catfish is an otocinclus (otos), make sure there’s plenty for them to eat, fresh veg like cucumber, courgette or broccoli stalks normally go down well

Also they like to be in groups, 5 or more is better

Sorry guys it been a while.

Here how my tank going so far.
3 adults platy remains.
5 junior female gappy 2 male junior gappy
2 nerite snails
One ammon shrimp
I lost alot of the older fish due to old age u guess one I lost and I have no idea where she gone I'm guessing she died and got eaten over night not even bones were find.

Plants are doing great as you can see
The rotola at the tips is pink be nice for the whole thing to be like this...
The background is almost completely covered.
And last I have changed the timer today for clock change but also added an hour to see how it goes in the tanks so we gone from 6 to 7hours.
I've not cleaned my glass in over 2 month now and it does not look bad thanks to the snails.
Here some pictures...

Looks good.
The otos may have helped the snails with any algae.
