I have a 210 gallon freshwater tank. I have been keeping fish for as long as I could remember. I always have fancy plecos. Well today I came across a new problem in the 15+ years in keeping fish. A little back story. I have a 2.5 inch Blue Phantom pleo and a 3 inch Vampire Pleco. I introduced a Three Beacon pleco after quarantine of 3 weeks. I have lots of drift wood and hiding holes/caves for them to hide in. About 3o minutes after introducing the Three Beacon I found the Vampire pleco and Three Beacon having a death match fight. I have seen plecos fight before but never this severe. My tank now has a barrier to separate them until I can get my other tank (150 gal) back up. Any suggestions as to help resolve the aggression? I also have a Golden Nugget pleco in quarantine tank they did not fight. I did notice however that the Three Beacon is the one starting the fights with the Vampire Pleco.
