Can always ask if they'll order them. Some do. I know i was looking for a tiger pleco and they ordered me one. Can always try that.

Fish tanks are an expensive addiction

A bn pleco, a rubbernose pleco, an inspector pleco,
any of these would be fine, all reach about 4 inches approx.

Also, are ya going to be upgrading the severum to
a bigger tank in the future? They reach about 10 inches in length.

Hypancistrus do little to aid algae problems...a rubber pleco (parancistrus) doesn't really eat much in the way of algal material, either.

I always liked rubber-lipped plecos, but I think it all depends on availability. A BN is always a nice choice as well.

i think the BN would be your best bet, or one along those lines.
