Default Long finned ancistrus

Was thinking of sacking my oto and buying this long finned fellow
(@$18 2 inches size wow so exp compared to oto)

this long finned pleco should be more hardworking plus looked nicer to me at least , mine is shrimp tank, planeria building up a population no matter how many i remove them so was thinking if this guy would eat them up or onot...

Max can grow up to 4 inches, saw adults at 328
Any bros bought it for shrimp tank and any feedback?
